Completely ridiculous ...
First of all there were NEVER any Ice Ages except in the unformed
minds of clueless Gogos masquerading as Geologists at the present
time
Secondly Faults DO NOT CAUSE QUAKES anymore than roads intersection
cause car accidents.
Faults are lines where the critical breaking point was reached in the
Lithosphere through the process of continuous PE or Planetary
Expansion ...
I wish you would cease to spout out your Universillyties learn by

I read about a method using stalagmites for dating historical
earthquakes, using radioactive dating techniques. This makes sense.
Stalagmites form when water trickles through crevices in a cave’s
ceiling and drips to the floor. Each drop carries with it a quantity
of dissolved calcium carbonate (the defining ingredient of limestone)
that it has picked up while flowing through the rock above. When a
drop lands, some of this mineral is deposited at the landing site,
where it accumulates, forming a stalagmite. When large earthquakes
shake the ground, new cracks in cave ceilings open. The result is the
formation of a new generation of stalagmites.
