The ACT is positioned on the Australian continent, which was once a part of the supercontinent Gondwana. The ACT is in the Tasmanides, the deformed rocks of the orogen that make up the core of the old mountain range that makes up the Australian continent east of the Tasman Line. These rocks are an addition to the Proterozoic core of the continent.

According to the United States Geological Survey, the earthquake was the result of strike-slip faulting at a shallow depth of 12 km, while Geoscience Australia placed the depth at 10 km. [2] The European-Mediterranean Seismological Centre reported the focal depth at 2 km. [6] A preliminary insight of the quake of such magnitude suggest a ...
