Eeeey guys! Wazzup? Nilindol kami dito sa Mindanao mga kadalawang beses na. With a magnitude of 6.4 and 6.7 respectively. Traumatic talaga yung first quake kasi nasa fifth floor kami nag-eexam. Napaisip talaga ako kung katapusan ko na ba? My God. There were casualties on other areas. But fortunately, dito samin mga buildings and roads yung may malaking pinsala. Medyo malapit din kasi kami sa epicenter ng quake.

So, share ko na lang din. Since ang assignment namin ay tungkol sa geological structures or any scientific cause ng lindol. Interesting na assignment actually. I am a Mining Engineering student kasi, so that's why ganito yung assignment. Baka lang ma-weirdohan kayo sa prof namin😅

Well, anyway... According sa mga naresearch ko.

Ang lindol ay likha ng planetary alignment. For example, yung Earth lined up with the Uranus and Sun. May effect yun sa gravitational pull—disturbance kumbaga.

Pwede rin na sanhi ng global warming. Kasi yung mga yelo sa polar areas kapag nagmelt ay magku-cause ng disturbance sa equilibrium ng earth. Yung pressure ng yelo ay nawala kaya mas malayang makapenetrate ang mga molten rocks o magma, thus creating an earthquake. So, technically speaking considered na volcanic din ito. Volcanic earthquake is when the magma chamber swells and then the pressure cannot be contained therefore creating cracks on the surroundings. This rising magma can cause the breakage of rocks which is called the focus of the earthquake.

Another one is the most common, the cause of faults. Geologically speaking, Philippines is located in the Ring of Fire... meaning there's a lot of volcanoes here. As we all know, the PFZ or Philippine Fault Zone is stretching 1200 km long if I am not mistaken. We have here the Mindanao Fault extension and other minor faults which caused the tectonic quake the last couple weeks in the Mindanao region. The sudden release of energy during the breakage of rocks along a fault sends shockwaves on the surface thus creating earthquake.

And oh, in behalf of the mining family. People say mining can cause earthquake. Guys, no. Blasting can shake the ground but cannot generate massive earthquake. We don't use nuclear, lmao.

And one more thing, did you know there is a tectonic weapon created by US to generate an earthquake anywhere they want?

There are many reasons and possibilities. But one thing is for sure, earthquake is UNPREDICTABLE and only GOD knows

Keep safe everyone!😇 God Bless💕

PS. Can I have your thoughts regarding my story Forbidden Euphoria? Beke nemen😂
