Earthquake hits Boksburg on Gauteng’s East Rand

According to media reports, the last earthquake in the Boksburg area was recorded in July this year, with a magnitude of 3.5.

The European-Mediterranean Seismological Centre said the earthquake occurred 20km east of Johannesburg and was 10km deep. According to Volcano Discovery, when an earthquake occurs, stress accumulated in solid rock is suddenly released along fault lines. The energy released when the rocks break along the fault is converted into seismic waves that radiate from the origin.
