M 6.3 - 134 km W of Bhamo, Myanmar

Complex event observed on broadband displacement seismograms. FAULT PLANE SOLUTION: P-Waves NP1:Strike=98 Dip=87 Slip=35 NP2:Strike=6 Dip=55 Slip=176 Principal Axes: (T) Plg=26 Azm=328 (P) Plg=22 Azm=227 Comment: The focal mechanism is poorly controlled and corresponds to strike-slip faulting with a large reverse component. The preferred fault plane is not determined. RADIATED ENERGY No. of sta: 6 Focal mech.
