Discovery of meteorites on a blue-ice field near the Frontier Mountains, North Victoria Land, Antarctica

A high concentration of meteorites were discovered on a blue ice field northeast of the Frontier Mountains. As a result of a systematic search, a total of 42 meteorites were recovered. The current glacial situation has evolved through various stages, which are discussed in relationship to the concen...
