Contents

This Open File provides a review of legacy magnetotelluric (MT) responses and synthetic 2-D MT impedance responses along the path of the planned Kivalliq Hydro-Fibre link from Gillam, Manitoba, to Kivalliq, Nunavut.  The synthetic 2-D MT impedance responses are included in table format as a Microsoft Excel spreadsheet (of_8907_Appendix_1_impedance_responses.xlsx).
