An earthquake of magnitude 3.9 occurred after midnight on Wednesday, July 30th, 2025, at 12:43 am local time near Battle Mountain, Lander County, Nevada, USA, as reported by the European-Mediterranean Seismological Centre (EMSC).
According to preliminary data, the quake was located at a shallow depth of 6.2 miles. Shallow earthquakes are felt more strongly than deeper ones as they are closer to the surface. Magnitude and other quake parameters can still change in the coming hours as the agency continues to process seismic data.
Based on the preliminary seismic data, the quake should not have caused any significant damage, but was probably felt by many people as light vibration in the area of the epicenter.
Weak shaking might have been felt in Battle Mountain (pop. 3,600) located 13 miles from the epicenter, and Crescent Valley (pop. 390) 15 miles away.
Other towns or cities near the epicenter where the quake might have been felt as very weak shaking include Carlin (pop. 2,300) located 43 miles from the epicenter. In Winnemucca (pop. 7,900, 58 miles away), the quake was probably not felt.
