"Rebecca Bell, a tectonics expert at Imperial College London (ICL), suggested it was a side-to-side "strike-slip" of the #SagaingFault.
This is where the Indian #tectonicplate, to the west, meets the Sunda plate that forms much of #SoutheastAsia — a fault similar in scale and movement to the San Andreas Fault in California.
"The Sagaing fault is very long, 1,200 kilometres (745 miles), and very straight," Bell said. "The straight nature means #earthquakes can rupture over large areas — and the larger the area of the fault that slips, the larger the #earthquake."
