The straight line distance of the earthquake is about 1050 kilometers away from the Song County Seismic Station Station. The shock measurement instrument at the Song County Seismic Station showed that the P -wave (earthquake vertical wave) arrived at 12:54 minutes and 35 seconds, with an average speed of about 7.5 km/second.

Relevant experts from the Luoyang Earthquake Terrace previously introduced in an interview with reporters that Luoyang is located in the Loshan Basin in the east section of the Qinling Weiri structure belt and the southwestern part of the North China plate. The geological background is relatively stable. The dense and hard, the overall structure is complete, and there is no large broken zone nearby.
