The Cape Buromski ( Russian Мыс Буромского Mys Buromskowo ) is the northern cape of Krylov Peninsula at the Oates Coast of the East Antarctic Victoria Land .
The first aerial photographs were taken during the US operation Highjump (1946–1947). The cape was mapped using aerial photographs from 1958 of a Soviet Antarctic expedition. It is named after the Soviet hydrographer Nikolai Ivanovich Buromski (1926–1957), who died on this research trip.
