The Hauberg Mountains (-75.8667°N -84°W) are a group of mountains of about extent, located north of Cape Zumberge and south of the Sweeney Mountains in eastern Ellsworth Land, Antarctica.
The Hauberg Mountains are in the southeast of Ellsworth Land just north of the Orville Coast.They are southeast of the Behrendt Mountains and south of the Sweeney Mountains.Eastern features, from north to south, include Shelton Nunataks, Janke Nunatak, Bean Peaks, Carlson Peak, Novocin Peak and Cape Zumberge. Western features include Mount Leek and Mount Dewe, separated by the Spear Glacier from the Peterson Hills and Wilkins Mountains.The Witte Nunataks are to the north.
The Hauberg Mountains were discovered by the Ronne Antarctic Research Expedition (RARE), 1947–48, led by Finn Ronne, and named by him for John Hauberg, of Rock Island, Illinois, a contributor to the expedition.

The feature was mapped by USGS from surveys and United States Navy aerial photographs, 1961-67, and was visited by a USGS geological party, 1977-78, led by Peter D. Rowley. Named by US-ACAN after Commander (later Captain) David A. Srite, United States Navy, chief navigator of an LC-130 aircraft in support of the geological party in this area, 1977-78; Commanding Officer, Antarctic Development Squadron Six, 1979 to 1980; Commanding Officer, Naval Support Force, Antarctica, 1985 to 1987.

-76.2333°N -109°W. A steep rock cape on the west side of the Ronne Ice Shelf, marking the southwest end of the Orville Coast. The name "Zumberge Nunatak" was given by the US-IGY party from Ellsworth Station, 1957-58, to a rock feature reported to lie north of the westernmost traverse station occupied by the party.The cape described, though somewhat farther north, is apparently the only rock feature lying in that direction.
