This work will extend this catalogue of normal mode (generalized) structure coefficient estimates from 3 to 5 mHz focusing on data analysis of mantle-sensitive modes, rather than analysis of core-sensitive modes. The goal is to generate coefficient estimates, estimated errors, and misfit statistics for at east 100 new multiplets. This expanded catalogue will be used to assess existing mantle models. ***
