Magnitude 6.0 quake recorded in Southeastern part of Pacific Ocean — US Geological Survey

Moscow, Oct 23 (Sputnik) — A 6.0 magnitude earthquake was registered on Friday in the southeastern part of the Pacific Ocean, the US Geological Survey said.
The tremor was recorded at 01:46 GMT in the West Chile Rise, 1,545 kilometers (some 960 miles) northwest of the Chilean town of Hanga Roa. The epicenter was located at a depth of 10 kilometers.
No tsunami alert has been declared.
The West Chile Rise lies along a boundary between the Nazca and Antarctic tectonic plates and therefore is a seismologically active area.
