How did the Canterbury earthquake occur?
The 4 September earthquake was caused by movement along the Greendale fault (a break in the rocks below the earth's surface) near to Christchurch. It happened when the forces within the earth became greater than the friction holding rocks together. As the rocks moved the vibrations caused the ground to shake. The fault had been hidden below the gravels of the Canterbury Plains.
