| Parameter | Qual. | Evidence | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Min Depth (km) | 0 | LD | Fault affects late Quaternary deposits;Geomorphic expression;Paleoseismic trench |
| Max Depth (km) | 25 | EJ | Based on average dip, and max. seismogenic depth |
| Strike (deg) | 138 - 166 | LD | One-sigma range of strike of mapped surface trace |
| Dip (deg) | 50 - 65 | EJ | General estimate from mining & seismic-reflection data, & hypocenter of large eq |
| Rake (deg) | 284 - 312 | AR | Shear direction resolved for evaluated dip and strike range from stress tensor |
| Slip Rate (mm/y) | 0.03 - 0.06 | LD | Converted from published vertical deformation rate |
| Max Magnitude (Mw) | 7.1 | ER | Based on length of mapped surface trace, truncated at 55 km |
| Q-keys: | LD = Literature Data; OD = Original Data; ER = Empirical Relationship; AR = Analytical Relationship; EJ = Expert Judgement |
