The China Earthquake Networks Center (CENC) officially recorded the epicenter at37.80°N, 95.56°E— within the Dachaidan administrative region — with a shallow focal depth of just10 kilometers.
The shallow depth meant the shaking was felt intensely in the immediate area. The epicenter sits at an average elevation of approximately4,302 metersabove sea level on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau.
As of the early hours ofJune 17, multiple aftershocks above magnitude 3.0 have been recorded:
According to the Dachaidan Earthquake Emergency Command Center, after two rounds of thorough personnel searches, the confirmed toll as of23:00 on June 16is:
The relatively low casualty count is attributed to the region's sparse population and the rapid emergency response. Key infrastructure within a 50-km radius of the epicenter — includingtransportation, telecommunications, electricity, water supply, and gas networks— remains operational.
However, some roads in the Dachaidan area ha…

A 6.3-magnitude earthquake struck Haixi Mongol and Tibetan Autonomous Prefecture in northwest China's Qinghai Province on Tuesday evening, prompting authorities to launch assessments of the affected region.
According to the China Earthquake Networks Centre (CENC), the earthquake occurred at 5:06 pm local time (Beijing Time) and originated at a shallow depth of 10 kilometres, a factor that can intensify ground shaking near the epicentre.
Epicentre Located in Sparsely Populated Region
The quake's epicentre was recorded near latitude 37.80 degrees north and longitude 95.56 degrees east in a remote area of Qinghai Province. Preliminary data from the United States Geological Survey (USGS) placed the epicentre at 37.889N and 95.403E, approximately 260 kilometres southeast of Dunhuang and nearly 581 kilometres west-northwest of Xining, the provincial capital.
