The month's largest event in Colombia was a magnitude 4.7 earthquake near Villanueva, Colombia on 17 June 2026 at 10:51 UTC. A magnitude 4.7 earthquake radiates roughly 169 tons of TNT equivalent in seismic energy.
That is below the Colombia monthly average of 4 events over the period we cover — a comparatively quiet month, and up from the 2 recorded the previous month.
0% of events here are shallow (under 70 km), 100% intermediate (70–300 km) and 0% deep-focus (over 300 km). A substantial share of intermediate-depth events points to a subducting slab beneath the region rather than purely crustal faulting.
By band, the catalogue holds 3 in the magnitude 4 range.
