Question:
Stopes mined along plunging folds of Precambrian rock range between depths of 869 m (2,850 ft) and 1,174 m (3,850 ft) below surface. The stopes are up to 30.5 m (100 ft) wide. Fold plunge is 12◦. Fold dip varies, but stope walls are vertical. A vertical, rectangular shaft 4.6 × 6.4 m (15 × 21 ft) provides access. How close to the shaft should stopping be allowed? Explain.

I have recently received the degree of PhD. In Physics by the Universidade Federal do Maranhão after spending a term in Durham University, as I have been awarded a scholarship from a Brazilian mobility program. During my PhD. I have performed research mainly in Theoretical Physics and published works in distinguished Journals (check my ORCID: https://orcid.org/0000-0002-4324-1184).
During my BSc. I have been awarded a scholarship to study for a year in the University of Evansville, where I have worked in detection-analysis of photon correlations in the the Photonics Laboratory. There I was a tutor in Electromagnetism, Classical Mechanics and Calculus for most of that year (2012).
I am very dedicated, honest and a fast learner, but most of all, I value a job well done.
