Belo Horizonte/MG/Brazil

Internship Recommendation

To whom it may concern,

I am director of Hidrovia Hidrogeologia e Meio Ambiente, a Hydrogeology Consultancy founded in

1998 and located in Belo Horizonte city, Brazil. I am writing in support of Leandro K. G. Farias for

an internship.

Leandro has worked for our company as a field technician from June/2011 to January/2012,

when he left in order to pursue a university education as a Mining Engineer.

In this period, he has worked both in the field and in the office for groudwater dewatering projects

in iron and limestone mines in Minas Gerais State. He has also handled laboratory analytical

equipment for detection of water tracers.

Leandro has shown strong responsibility and commitment to the tasks assigned, as well as a

good personal integration with the team. Without hesitation, I recommend him for an internship.

Sincerely,

Gisele Kimura Geologist, MSc in Environment, Water Resources and Sanitation - Federal University of Minas Gerais Director of Hidrovia Hidrogeologia e Meio Ambiente gisele@hidrovia.com.br +55 31 25355004
