Ny-London is an abandoned mining settlement on Blomstrandøya, Svalbard, established by the prospector Ernest Mansfield on behalf of the Northern Exploration Company (NEC) in 1911. Mansfield discovered marble on the island in 1906, after which he described the deposits as being "no less than an island of pure marble."
