Earthquakes
The epicenter, with a depth of 44.45 km, was initially determined to be at 21.9814 degrees south latitude and 70.4681 degrees west longitude.
Event
A magnitude-6.2 earthquake occurred in northern Chile at 14:58 July 27. The epicenter was about 56 km (35 miles) northeast from the city of Calama. The tremor occurred at a depth of about 99 km (62 miles), and light-to-moderate shaking was probably felt throughout the Arica y Parinatoca, Tarapaca, and Antofagasta regions of Chile, the Jujuy and Salta provinces of Argentina, and the Potosi department of Bolivia.
There have been no initial reports of damage or casualties as a result of the earthquake; however, minor damage is possible in areas close to the epicenter. It could take several hours until authorities can conduct comprehensive damage assessments, especially in remote areas. Light and moderate aftershocks are likely over the coming days.

At least four people have died and 60 others were injured by a powerful earthquake in the northern Philippines, the country's interior minister has said.
The 8:43am (00:43 GMT) quake on Wednesday struck the mountainous and lightly populated province of Abra on Luzon, the country's main and most populous island, causing small landslides and collapsing some houses. The tremors caused high-rise towers to shake more than 400km (249 miles) away in the capital, Manila, which is located on the south of the island.
The earthquake was measured at a preliminary magnitude of 7.1 by the US Geological Survey (USGS), 7.2 by the European Mediterranean Seismological Centre (EMSC) and 7.3 by the Philippines Institute of Volcanology and Seismology (Phivolcs).
Phivolcs later revised the magnitude down to 7.0. Still, the earthquake was strongest to have hit the Philippines in years.

Meanwhile, in the Philippines, the Phivolcs disaster agency released a special warning regarding the Kanlaon volcano. And, in Alaska, two volcanoes which have each not erupted in about a century produced a several thousand foot tall plume of ash.

According to state television, 49 people were injured in three successive earthquakes that shook the southern province of Hormozgan, including the worst-hit village of Sayeh Khosh.
The first earthquake occurred at about 02:00 local time (21:30 GMT) with a magnitude of 6 at a depth of 16 km, according to the US Seismological Institute (USGS).
It was followed by two other aftershocks, two hours later, with a magnitude of 5.7 and 6, at a depth of 10 km.
According to television footage, several residential buildings collapsed in Sayeh Khosh and the town was plunged into darkness following a power failure.
The institute said the quake, which occurred at 2:40 a.m. local time, hit at a depth of 27 km, about 27 km southeast of Dalupiri Island in Calayan town.
The tremor was also felt in nearby provinces, including Apayao and Ilocos Sur on the main Luzon island. The institute said the tectonic quake will trigger aftershocks but can not cause damage.
The Philippines has frequent seismic activity due to its location along the Pacific "Ring of Fire." (ANI/Xinhua)
