raindancewx Posted December 29, 2016 Share Posted December 29, 2016 I've seen people argue that there is a strong statistical link between earthquakes and near solar minimums, as well as fracking. Not sure if NV has a lot of fracking, or if we are close enough to the minimum for either to be a factor? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roger Smith Posted December 30, 2016 Share Posted December 30, 2016 There is a dormant volcanic cone (Aurora Crater) shown at the general location of many of these quakes.
