- Coordinates: 49.6503° S, 164.0868° E
- Depth: 10 km
The blue and white areas of the diagram show the directions of compression and extension during the rupture; the shape indicates the fault type (normal, reverse, or strike-slip). The solution yields two mathematically equivalent fault planes — which one is the actual rupture plane is usually unknown without additional geological context:
| Plane | Strike | Dip | Rake |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | 46° | 87° | 171° |
| 2 | 136° | 81° | 3° |
The data is preliminary (status: reviewed) and may be revised by USGS as additional information becomes available.
