Bronze plaques honouring two men lost in the Australasian Antarctic Expedition of 1911-14 have been unveiled at Mawson s Place in Hobart. More than a century after perishing in Antarctica, two expeditioners who ventured south in the name of science have been remembered in Hobart. British Army officer Lieutenant Belgrave Edward Ninnis and Swiss mountaineer Dr Xavier Guillaume Mertz were part of the 1911-14 Australasian Antarctic Expedition. They were about 500 kilometres east of their Cape Denison base alongside party leader Sir Douglas Mawson when tragedy struck on December 14, 1912. Ninnis disappeared down a crevasse, taking with him a team of six huskies and most of the party s supplies.
