Formed at the Glacier terminus, terminus of merging Struma Glacier, Struma and Huron Glaciers, it was originally named ''Elemag Point''. The current reef configuration is due to glacier retreat of up to 1.8 km in the area in the late 20th and early 21st century. Bulgarian mapping in 2009. Bulgarian topographic survey Tangra 2004/05 and mapping in 2009. Named after Elemag, governor of Berat during the final years of the First Bulgarian Empire.
