WASHINGTON - A 5.7 magnitude earthquake rattled northern Chile, which
has been rocked by a series of aftershocks over the last 10 days, the
U.S. Geological Survey said on Saturday.
The quake at 5:02 a.m. was centred 90 miles deep, the USGS said.
There were no initial reports of deaths or damage.
On November 14, a 7.7 magnitude quake near Antofagasta collapsed homes
and buildings, killing two people and injuring 115, and there have been
a number of aftershocks since then.
