Duke Island is an island in the Gravina Islands of the Alexander Archipelago in the southeastern part of the U.S. state of Alaska. The island is just north of the Canadian border. It is 19km (12 miles) long and 13km (8.1mi) wide. It hosts an Alaskan-type ultramafic complex which is currently being explored for magmatic sulfide Cu-Ni-PGE deposits
The original name for the island, in the Tlingit language is: Yeixhi (building (verb), referring to it looking like something under construction when viewed from the waters around it.
The island was named by William Healy Dall in 1879. He probably took the name from the island's southern cape, which George Vancouver had named in 1793 after the Duke of Northumberland.
Unlike many other lunar features named by the Apollo astronauts, the name of the mountain is not formally recognized by the International Astronomical Union. However, Duke Island and other informal features such as nearby Boot Hill or Mount Marilyn (within Montes Secchi) were significant landmarks used by the astronauts for navigation to the first landing site. "Duke" refers to astronaut Charlie Duke, who was CAPCOM during the Apollo 11 landing and lunar module pilot of Apollo 16.
