Are you standing on the Rock of Salvation?

LOS ANGELES, Chile – An earthquake with magnitude 6.1 has struck the same area desvastated by the Feb. 27, mega quake of 8.8 near Concepcion.

The quake struck at 6:03 a.m. local time (3:03 Pacific Time) about 55 km (35 miles) west of Los Angeles, Bio-Bio, Chile. The location was 40 miles south of Concepcion, 40 miles ENE of Lebu and 300 miles SSW of Santiago.

The USGS said the quake was at a depth of 21.7 miles below the surface and the depth may dampen damage. However, there was widespread destruction in the same area of Chile during the February mega-tremor and cracked building may suffer more damage.

So far, there are no reports of damage.
