It took place at 03.40 in the early morning of 1 March 1954 and had a reported magnitude of 5.6. The quake is thought to have started along the Eden-Burnside fault line, which is essentially the Hills face zone, at a depth of 4 km although, due to lack of instruments, this is uncertain.As Australia lies in the middle of a tectonic plate, South Australia is relatively stable geologically, however, South Australia is the second most earthquake prone of the Australian states with around 3-4 tremors every day. Most are, however, of a magnitude below 2.5 noteworthy only to seismologists, and since they are dispersed fairly evenly across the state, most take place well away from centers of human population. The 1954 Adelaide earthquake was different because of its magnitude, which made it the fourth most intense earthquake reported in the state since settlement in 1836, and because it took place in an area of dense human settlement, under a suburb of the state capital, Adelaide."@en }
