The 1999 Hector Mine earthquake occurred in Southern California, United States, on October 16 at 02:46:50 PDT. Its moment magnitude was 7.1 and the earthquake was preceded by 12 foreshocks, the largest of which had a magnitude of 3.8. The event is thought to have been triggered by the 1992 Landers earthquake which occurred seven years earlier. It also deformed nearby faults vertically and horizontally. The earthquake's hypocenter was at a depth of 20 kilometers and its epicenter at 34.603° N 116.265° W.

  • ヘクターマイン地震 (Hector Mine earthquake) は、1999年10月16日2時46分44秒(太平洋標準時)にアメリカ合衆国カリフォルニア州の東南東47マイルで発生した、マグニチュード7.1の地震。この地震は内にあたるモハーヴェ砂漠の人里離れた場所で発生した。名前は、震央から22km北西にあるヘクターマインという名前の石切場から付けられた。 地震は非常に強く、ネバダ州ラスベガスでは20 - 30秒間揺れが感じられた。ラスベガスでは多くの人が目を覚ました。かなり北のネバダ州カーソンシティでも1人の女性が家のチャイムが鳴るのを聴いて目覚めたと報告された。また、地震は震源から南西のロサンゼルスでも感じられた。 震央がモハーヴェ砂漠の中の人里はなれた場所であったため、周辺地域での被害の報告はほぼ無かった。震央近くを走っていた列車が脱線したが、軽傷者のみであり列車も修理可能であった。 この地震は、この地域では1992年6月28日の以来の大地震であり、10月15日から続いた前震の後に発生した。 (ja)

  • The 1999 Hector Mine earthquake occurred in Southern California, United States, on October 16 at 02:46:50 PDT. Its moment magnitude was 7.1 and the earthquake was preceded by 12 foreshocks, the largest of which had a magnitude of 3.8. The event is thought to have been triggered by the 1992 Landers earthquake which occurred seven years earlier. It also deformed nearby faults vertically and horizontally. The earthquake's hypocenter was at a depth of 20 kilometers and its epicenter at 34.603° N 116.265° W. The earthquake caused minimal damage and no fatalities due to the distance of its epicenter from populated centers. The significance of this earthquake lies in the fact that, firstly, it had a relatively-high magnitude but caused little damage and secondly, it offered more evidence that stress accumulation over time causes earthquakes.
