Správa o zemetrasení pri Banskej Bystrici 6. apríla 2022
We present seismological and geological interpretations of the weak earthquake that occurred on April 6th, 2022 with epicenter between Šalková (suburb of Banská Bystrica) and Slovenská Ľupča. The local magnitude of the event was ML = 2.1. The earthquake was macroseismically observed in 21 localities (101 reports) on the territory of Slovakia with epicentral intensity 4° EMS-98. The estimated focal mechanism indicates a normal fault in approximately E-W direction. This favours the theory of an extension regime in the Čertovica tectonic zone.
