It said: > The quake hit a shallow depth of 10km beneath the epicentre near Gweru, Midlands province, Zimbabwe, early yesterday morning. > The exact magnitude, epicentre and depth of the quake might be revised within the next few hours or minutes as seismologists review data and refine their calculations or as other agencies issue their reports. > Based on the preliminary seismic data, the quake may not have caused any significant damage, but was probably felt by many people as a light vibration in the area of the epicentre. The epicentre is the point on the earth’s surface vertically above the focus or hypocentre of an earthquake. The CGS said the tremors were felt in Gweru, Shurugwi, Lalapanzi, Redcliff, Kwekwe and Zvishavane, all of the Midlands. *More: NewsDay* _If you found this article useful_ *Please support Pindula by forwarding to friends and groups*
