The Brusen (also known as the Foley nunatak ) is a single nunatak in the Kempland East Antarctica . In the Hansenfjella it rises 5 km west of the Gjeitafjell .
Norwegian cartographers, who also named it, mapped the mountain range using aerial photographs taken during the Lars Christensen expedition in 1936/37 . It is named after a rock of the same name in Lofoten . A new mapping was carried out using aerial photographs taken by the Australian National Antarctic Research Expeditions . The name given by the Antarctic Names Committee of Australia (ANCA) is named after Noel Edward Foley (* 1927), weather observer at Mawson Station in 1965, who was also involved in tellurometer measurements of the Hansenfjella.
