The Canterbury earthquake was 7.1 on the Richter scale, and unusually shallow at 10 km. It is expected that the largest aftershock could be up to 6 on the Richter scale, and they are expected to last for many months.

This particular fault line, previously unknown, has been quiet for at least 16 000 years - before the current glacial and gravel outwashes created the Canterbury Plains.
