Worsfoldfjellet (75° 06 ‘S ; 12° 51’ W, elevation 2300 metres) is a mountain which is part of Heimefrontfjella, a mountain range in Dronning Maud Land, East Antarctica.[1] Seen from the air by members of the Norwegian-British-Swedish expedition (1949-1952) the mountains were first reached overland by members of the British Antarctic Survey from Halley Station in 1961 enabling a program of surveying and geological mapping to start in 1963. Some of the features carry the names of the field personnel. Richard Worsfold was the first geologist to map part of the range and together with Gordon Bowra first reached the mountain's summit in the summer of 1963.[2]
The range was subsequently visited by scientists from Gottingen University and a geological mapsheet of the mountain was published in 1998.
