M4.0 Earthquake in the Revilla Gigedo Islands region — June 28, 2025
2025-06-28 18:45:27 UTC (2025-06-28) · approx. 11:45 AM UTC-7 local
On June 28, 2025 at 18:45 UTC, a magnitude 4.0 shallow crustal earthquake struck in the Revilla Gigedo Islands region, at a depth of 10.0 km and coordinates 19.3196°, -109.0410°.
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.
