Explanation of the files in the “RockMag” folder:

There are four folders with Manicouagan deep drill core names that contain three types of files titled as basement rock sample name:
•	COE File contains measured data for backfield curve (using VSM)
•	HYS File contains measured data for hysteresis loop (using VSM)
•	RMP File contains measured data for thermomagnetic curve (using VFTB)
