A shallow magnitude 4.3 earthquake was reported in the afternoon near Springbok, Namakwa District Municipality, Northern Cape, South Africa.
According to the European-Mediterranean Seismological Centre (EMSC), the quake hit on Monday, December 8th, 2025, at 5:14 pm local time at a shallow depth of 10. km. Shallow earthquakes are felt more strongly than deeper ones as they are closer to the surface. The exact magnitude, epicenter, and depth of the quake might be revised within the next few hours or minutes as seismologists review data and refine their calculations, or as other agencies issue their report.
Based on the preliminary seismic data, the quake was probably felt by many people in the area of the epicenter. It should not have caused significant damage, other than objects falling from shelves, broken windows, etc.
In Springbok (pop. 10,400) located 6 km from the epicenter, the quake should have been felt as light shaking.
VolcanoDiscovery will automatically update magnitude and depth if these change and follow up if other significant news about the quake become available.
