Earthquakes in Bolivia — September 2026

1 earthquakes were recorded in Bolivia during September 2026, an average of 0.0 per day.

1 reached magnitude 4 or above and 0 reached magnitude 5 or above. The average focal depth was 373 km.

The month's largest event in Bolivia was a magnitude 4.8 earthquake near Cliza, Bolivia on 10 September 2026 at 12:05 UTC. A magnitude 4.8 earthquake radiates roughly 239 tons of TNT equivalent in seismic energy.

That is below the Bolivia monthly average of 3 events over the period we cover — a comparatively quiet month, and level with the 1 recorded the previous month.

0% of events here are shallow (under 70 km), 0% intermediate (70–300 km) and 100% deep-focus (over 300 km). That proportion of deep-focus events is the signature of a subduction zone: only a cold slab descending into the mantle stays brittle enough to rupture at those depths.

By band, the catalogue holds 1 in the magnitude 4 range.

That is 61% below the 3 events Bolivia averages per month across the 18 months on record.
