    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/South_magnetic_pole

    The south geomagnetic pole is the point where the axis of this best-fitting tilted dipole intersects Earth's surface in the southern hemisphere. As of 2005 it was calculated to be located at 79.74°S 108.22°E, [ 10] near the Vostok Station. Because the field is not an exact dipole, the south geomagnetic pole does not coincide with the south ...
