On November 1, 2025 at 18:54 UTC, a magnitude 4.0 intermediate depth earthquake struck 69 km NNE of Camiña, Chile, at a depth of 127.5 km and coordinates -18.7103°, -69.2268°.
Physical scale: An earthquake of magnitude 4.0 releases seismic energy equivalent to roughly 15 metric tons of TNT. Empirical fault-scaling laws (Wells & Coppersmith, 1994) estimate the subsurface rupture length at approximately 347 m — a useful intuition for the size of the slip patch on the fault.
