Stew Hamilton

Stew Hamilton completed PhD in 2006.

He is currently Senior Geologist at the Ontario Geological Survey. We have been working together a variety of projects including the current study, geochemical detection of concealed kimberlites, and the origin of spontaneous potential anomalies over many deposits.
