Granite Spur (73°30′S 94°24′W / 73.500°S 94.400°WCoordinates: 73°30′S 94°24′W / 73.500°S 94.400°W) is a rock spur along the north front of the Jones Mountains of Antarctica, 0.5 nautical miles (1 km) west of Avalanche Ridge. It was mapped by the University of Minnesota – Jones Mountains Party, 1960–61, and so named by them because the basement granite is well exposed here.[1]
