“The earthquake struck at a depth of 10 km below the epicenter near Springbok, Namakoa District Municipality, Northern Cape, South Africa, early in the morning of Tuesday, July 6, 2021 at 1:39 am local time.”
The volcano discovery said the exact size, epicenter and depth of the quake may be reviewed while seismologists review the data and improve their calculations, or when other agencies release their reports.
“Based on the initial seismic data, the earthquake should not have caused any significant damage but it was probably felt by many people as a slight shaking in the epicenter area.”
