I am looking for a way to find the Mount Point of a Volume given the BSDName from the IORegistry.

There are numerous ways to do this, depending on what level you're working at. The following is the lowest-level solution:

1. prefix the BSD name with "/dev/"

1. call <x-man-page://2/getfsstat>

2. iterate through array for a local volume (f_flags & MNT_LOCAL) mounted
   on that device (f_mntfromname == the string from step 1)

If you'd like something more appropriate to your environment (File Manager, Cocoa, Disk Arb), let me know.
