Significant magnitude 5.3 earthquake 132 km west of New Aksu, China5.3 quake 6 Mar 8:10 am (GMT +8) An earthquake of magnitude 5.3 occurred in the morning on Wednesday, March 6th, 2024, at 8:10 am local time near New Aksu, Aksu Diqu, Xinjiang, China, as reported by the European-Mediterranean Seismological Centre (EMSC). According to preliminary data, the quake was located at a very shallow depth of 7 km. Shallow earthquakes are felt more strongly than deeper ones as they are closer to the surface. The exact magnitude, epicenter, and depth of the quake might be revised within the next few hours or minutes as seismologists review data and refine their calculations, or as other agencies issue their report. A second report was later issued by the China Earthquake Networks Center (CEIC), which listed it as a magnitude 4.7 earthquake. A third agency, the German Research Centre for Geosciences (GFZ), reported the same quake at magnitude 5.3. Based on the preliminary seismic data, the quake should not have caused any significant damage, but was probably felt by many people as light vibration in the area of the epicenter. Weak shaking might have been felt in Kyzyl-Suu (pop. 16,900) located 120 km from the epicenter, Karakol (pop. 70,200) 124 km away, Aykol (pop. 11,300) 128 km away, and New Aksu (pop. 535,700) 132 km away. VolcanoDiscovery will automatically update magnitude and depth if these change and follow up if other significant news about the quake become available.
