Look up quakes! |
Chile has a very high level of seismic activity. Based on data from the past 14 years and our earthquake archive back to 1900, there are about 7,900 quakes on average per year in Chile. Chile has had at least 10 quakes above magnitude 8 since 1900, which suggests that larger earthquakes of this size occur infrequently, probably on average approximately every 10 to 15 years.
On average, Chile has about 4,100 quakes of magnitude 3 or higher per year (Mag 4+: 736 quakes per year, Mag 5+: 112 quakes per year, Mag 6+: 10.1 quakes per year).
