Martin J. Gole completed his BA at Macquarie University, Sydney, Australia, in 1972, and
initially worked as an exploration geologist before completing his PhD on Archaean
banded iron formations at the University of Western Australia in 1979. He then spent 2 89
years in the USA, undertaking postdoctoral research at Indiana University and Northwest
Illinois University and teaching at Georgia State University. He joined the CSIRO in 1981
to work on the use of helium in exploration and, from 1984 to 1988, worked on komatiite-
hosted nickel sulphide deposits. Since 1989 he has been a consultant geologist.

Martin Hale, BSc (geology), Durham, was a mineral exploration geologist in central Africa
before completing his PhD (applied geochemistry) at the Royal School of Mines, Imperial
College, London, and subsequently entering academic life there. He is now Professor of
Mineral Exploration at the International Institute for Aerospace Survey and Earth Sciences,
the Netherlands, and Professor of Geochemistry at Delft University of Technology. He co-
edited Volume 6 of the Handbook of Exploration Geochemistry, Drainage Geochemistry,
which was published in 1994.

Stewart M. Hamilton, BSc (geology), Laurentian, Sudbury, MSc (hydrogeology),
Carleton, Ottawa, has worked since 1984 in several fields of earth sciences including
geology, hydrogeology and aqueous geochemistry. In the period 1990 to 1994 he
worked as a hydrogeologist on a wide variety of geochemical and hydrogeological
projects for the environmental engineering firm Jacques Whitford Ltd. He joined the
Ontario Geological Survey in 1994 as an aqueous geochemist and has spent much of the
last five years investigating mechanisms controlling metal mobility in thick glacial
overburden.

Margaret E. Hinkle, BSc (chemistry), Wayne State University, Detroit, Michigan, MS
(geology), University of Michigan, Ann Arbor, Michigan, joined the US Geological
Survey in 1962. From 1972 until her retirement in 1995 she worked on methodologies and
applications of soil-gas geochemical surveys to geothermal and mineral resource studies.

Hu Zhengqin is a geological engineer carrying out geochemical and geophysical surveys
with the 814 Geochemical and Geophysical Survey Company of Huadon, China. He has
taken many new initiatives in geochemistry research, including his work on thermal release
of mercury, which has been widely applied in exploration in China. He has made
significant contributions to many aspects of geochemistry research and published several
exploration geochemistry handbooks.

lan R. Jonasson, BSc, BSc (hons.), PhD (chemistry), Universities of Melbourne and
Adelaide. Following research fellowships from the Nuffield Foundation (Adelaide) and the
National Research Council of Canada (Geological Survey of Canada), he joined the staff of
the GSC in Ottawa in 1971. During ten years in the Exploration Geochemistry section he
