The Tintina fault, located in northwestern Canada, has been more active than previously understood, resulting in a larger number of triggered earthquakes. This increased seismic activity suggests a concerning build-up of strain along the fault line. The fault threatens to unleash a substantial earthquake, particularly in the historically significant gold-mining area of the Yukon Territory. Scientists are closely monitoring the situation, emphasizing the need for awareness of the geological hazards presented by the Tintina fault.
A giant geological fault in northwestern Canada threatens to unleash a huge earthquake in the historic gold-mining heart of the Yukon Territory.
The Tintina fault has triggered many more earthquakes than was thought, indicating a significant build-up of strain in the region.
