1975-1985 Southeastern Lake Taupo quakes

There were no earthquakes recorded in the Rotoaira/Rotpounamu area covered by this category/search area. Technology at the time was limited to recording quakes above 2.5ML, and judging by the patterened locations of magnitude 3+ events the location co-ordinates were not pinpointed all that accurately anyway.
I have created this map which shows the events larger than 4.0 ML magnitude for the period just outside Rotoaira/Rotopounamu, in a radius approx. 15km from the summit of Mt Tihia.
Only the 5+ quakes are listed.
