interesting quake this deep morrocan quake

it's the african side of the subduction zone. africa USED to subduct under europe, but that has ended, and europe is gonna start subducting under africa

Europe may be starting to burrow its way under Africa, geologists suggest.

The continents are converging; and for many millions of years, the northern edge of the African tectonic plate has descended under Europe.

But this process has stalled; and at the European Geosciences Union (EGU) meeting last week, scientists said we may be seeing Europe taking a turn.

If they are correct, this would signal the start of a new subduction zone - a rare event, scientifically fascinating.

is this deep quaKE on the african side a sign that pressure is building deep down, where europe will one day dive under africa? where that quake happened, Spain will one day actually be.
