Magnitude 3.4 earthquake outside Muswellbrook

RECORDED: The site of the earthquake.

ANOTHER earthquake has been recorded just outside of Muswellbrook, the second quake in one week.

According to Geoscience Australia the 3.4 magnitude earthquake was recorded on Tuesday at 4.42am at a depth of just five kilometres.

The quake was felt by people in the Muswellbrook and Denman areas.

Mapping from Geoscience pinpoints the quake at a point near the Mt Arthur coal mine. This is similar to the earthquake recorded on Tuesday March 23 at 1am.

The magnitude 3.0 earthquake last week was recorded at a depth of three kilometres.
