At least six people injured and damage in southern Baluchistan Province. A 13-meter deep fissure was reported in the epicentral area. Felt in the Khuzdar-Surab area. Depth from broadband displacement seismograms. FAULT PLANE SOLUTION: P-Waves NP1:Strike=115 Dip=80 Slip=153 NP2:Strike=210 Dip=63 Slip=11 Principal Axes: (T) Plg=26 Azm=70 (P) Plg=11 Azm=165 Comment: The focal mechanism is poorly controlled and corresponds to strike-slip faulting with a moderate reverse component. The preferred fault plane is not determined. RADIATED ENERGY No. of sta: 9 Focal mech.
