The ones [earthquakes] near Snyder are very close to a fault system called the Llano Front and the Llano Front is where some other piece of continent crashed into North America and caused deformation there," Gurrola said.

Gurrola showed us a map of the fault line that you can see in our video on our page. Snyder lies very close to the Llano Front.

The United States Geological Survey recorded data from Sunday's quake and Gurrola says diagrams show it was most likely caused by horizontal movement along the fault.

"Strike slip means the rocks passed horizontally across each other not vertically," Gurrola said.
