Lillie Marleen Hut, Mt. Dockery, Everett Range, Northern Victoria Land. The hut was erected to support the work of the German Antarctic Northern Victoria Land Expedition (GANOVEX I) of 1979/1980. The hut, a bivouac container made of prefabricated fiberglass units insulated with polyurethane foam, was named after the Lillie Glacier and the song "Lillie Marleen". The hut is closely associated with the dramatic sinking of the expedition ship "Gotland II" during GANOVEX II in December 1981. [Wikipedia]

A German polar research station in the Antarctic.

Outcrop of the Admiralty granite.

According to D. Wyborn: "Very close to the saddle between the granite peaks on both sides of the campsite a number of mostly irregular, steeply dipping quartz veins, 1-30 cm thick, cut the granite. Molybdenite crystals up to 2 cm, mostly aggregated in patches, occur in several places along the border between quartz veins and granites. Sometimes the molybdenite is coated with bright yellow ferrimolybdite."
