... in early June also failed to observe any aftershocks. Within the sensitivity of the arrays, the Ayers Rock event was a temporally isolated earthquake. The absence of aftershock activity is in sharp contrast to the seismicity pattern following two magnitude 5.2 earthquakes near Tennant Creek in January 1987...
