The earthquake caused major damage to the historic buildings in Kalgoorlie–Boulder. Its epicenter was approximately 10 km (10 mi) southwest of Kalgoorlie, at a depth of 10 km (6.2 mi). The duration of shaking lasted about 10–15 seconds and was felt up to 1,007 km (626 mi) away. [ 6 ]
A pie chart comparing the seismic moment release of the three largest earthquakes for the hundred-year period from 1906 to 2005 with that for all earthquakes of magnitudes <6, 6 to 7, 7 to 8, and >8 for the same period. The 2011 Japan quake would be roughly similar to Sumatra. Earthquakes of magnitude 8.0 and greater from 1900 to 2018.

Classic recreates the game in the state it was in during patch 1.12.1, c. September 2006, before the launch of The Burning Crusade expansion. The maximum level of the player characters is set to 60, all expansion content is absent, and almost all the gameplay mechanics of the original version have been exactly replicated. [3]
[9] [10] The 1923 earthquake was also quite strong, measuring M w 8.5. [7] The 1952 event was the most recent of the great earthquakes (M w 8.5+) along the Kuril-Kamchatka trench, and measured M w 9.0. [11] The resulting tsunami from this earthquake generated runups up to 18 m (59 ft) high. [11]
