The rock was remapped from air photos and surveys by the Soviet Antarctic Expedition of 1960–61, and named "Skala Molchaniya".
Gluvreklett Glacier is a glacier flowing northwest between Von Essen Mountain and Terningskarvet Mountain in the Gjelsvik Mountains of Queen Maud Land, Antarctica. It was photographed from the air by the Third German Antarctic Expedition (1938–39).
