An earthquake of magnitude 3.1 occurred in the morning on Saturday, June 6th, 2026, at 8:21 am local time near Pukatja, Anangu Pitjantjatjara, South Australia, Australia, as reported by Geoscience Australia (GeoAu).According to preliminary data, the quake was located at a shallow depth of 6.2 miles. Shallow earthquakes are felt more strongly than deeper ones as they are closer to the surface. The exact magnitude, epicenter, 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 report.A second report was later issued by the European-Mediterranean Seismological Centre (EMSC), which listed it as a magnitude 3.1 earthquake as well. A third agency, the citizen-seismograph network of RaspberryShake, reported the same quake at magnitude 3.1.Towns or cities near the epicenter where the quake might have been felt as very weak shaking include Pukatja (pop. 510) located 11 miles from the epicenter.Earthquake data: Date & time: Jun 6, 2026 08:51 am (GMT +9:30) local time (5 Jun 2026 23:21 GMT)Magnitude: 3.1Depth: 10.00 kmEpicenter latitude / longitude: 26.37°S / 131.99°E (Anangu Pitjantjatjara, South Australia, Australia)Primary data source: GeoAu
