Pipecleaner Glacier (78°14′S 162°51′E) is a glacier, formed by the coalescence of numerous small alpine glaciers on the east side of Mount Huggins. Together with Glimpse Glacier, it joins the Radian Glacier where that stream meets the north arm of Dismal Ridge. Its surface is marked by innumerable bands of moraine reminiscent of pipe cleaners. Named by New Zealand Victoria University of Wellington Antarctic Expedition (VUWAE), 1960-61. [Wikipedia]

Geochronology
Mineralization age: Cambrian : 531 ± 5.5 MaImportant note: This table is based only on rock and mineral ages recorded on mindat.org for this locality and is not necessarily a complete representation of the geochronology, but does give an indication of possible mineralization events relevant to this locality. As more age information is added this table may expand in the future. A break in the table simply indicates a lack of data entered here, not necessarily a break in the geologic sequence. Grey background entries are from different, related, localities.
