Rigan Earthquake of 27 January 2011, Mw 6.2<\/strong><\/p>\n

At 12:08 local time on Thursday, January 27, 2011, an earthquake with a magnitude of Mw=6.2 and epicentral coordinates of 28.15N 59.09E struck the Rigan region in the Kerman province. The event, with a NW-SE strike-slip mechanism, was the biggest aftershock of the December 20, 2010 earthquake (Mw=6.5) occurred on the Kahurak fault. It is noteworthy that on January 27 and 28, 2011, about 68 seismic events were recorded with magnitude of ML=2.8 to 6.2 in the southeast of the Mohammad Abad Rigan region. Therefore, the Rigan earthquake of January 27 can be considered as a large aftershock which had its own aftershocks and created a secondary aftershock sequence. Fortunately, the earthquake had no casualties, while 70% of the homes and gardens of Chah Qanbar and an agricultural well were destroyed and roads of the area were blocked.<\/p>\n
