On June 2, 2026 at 04:46 UTC, a magnitude 4.1 intermediate depth earthquake struck 75 km WNW of The Bottom, Bonaire, Saint Eustatius and Saba , at a depth of 142.0 km and coordinates 17.9941°, -63.8551°.

Physical scale: An earthquake of magnitude 4.1 releases seismic energy equivalent to roughly 24 metric tons of TNT. Empirical fault-scaling laws (Wells & Coppersmith, 1994) estimate the subsurface rupture length at approximately 433 m — a useful intuition for the size of the slip patch on the fault.
