Anderson Knoll (77°54′S 163°26′E) is the southernmost nunatak in the Granite Knolls, 1 nautical mile (2 km) south of the main massif and marginal to Blue Glacier, in Victoria Land. It was named by the Advisory Committee on Antarctic Names after Klaus G. Anderson (died 1991), a civil engineering technician with the United States Geological Survey (USGS), 1960–90; he was a member of the USGS field team which established geodetic control in the Hudson Mountains, Jones Mountains, Thurston Island and Farwell Island areas of Walgreen Coast and Eights Coast during the 1968–69 season.
