Mag 7.8, 7.5, 6.7 and 6.0 earthquakes and aftershocks in Turkey

This image ... blows my mind:

The wall shown is blocky, not slick or scarred, so it looks like it failed in tension, not as the surface expression of a vertical shear fault.

What appears to have happened is a solid landslip. A large block of sedimentary rock on a hillside with a similar slope to the bedding, slid down-slope on an incompetent mudstone layer, leaving that precipice as the headwall.

The rock slide event was triggered by the earthquake. The foot of the rock slide is not shown. If the block was wedge shape, then the foot of the slide may be insignificant.

(CNN) – A magnitude 6.3 aftershock struck southern Turkey on Monday, two weeks after a massive earthquake killed tens of thousands of people in Turkey and Syria.

The quake struck Turkey’s southern Hatay province, near the Syrian border, Turkey’s Disaster and Emergency Management Agency (AFAD) said Monday.

The United States Geological Survey (USGS) initially reported the quake as being of magnitude 6.4 at a depth of 10 kilometers before revising it down to 6.3 magnitude.

That aftershock was accompanied by two smaller quakes of 4.2 (nearest) and 4.1 (further to the NNE). Further north were a 4.3 mag quake in Kahramanmaras province and a 4.1 mag quake in the mountains of Malatya province.
