Small Swarm of Light Earthquakes at Salton Buttes Volcano in Southern California





Look for the cluster of blue dots at the end of the big lake on the left margin of this map. Those are today's earthquakes at Salton Butte volcano.

Today there has been about 45 small earthquakes at the Salton Buttes volcano, in Southern California. This is a normal thing for this particular volcano, for it is still an active volcano as listed by the USGS. There is magma right below it, with a pipe being at about a mile down, and a magma body 4 to 6 miles down, and about 20 miles long. Most of the volcano is buried under thousands of feet of silt, sand, mud and mudstone. A live fumerole exists in what is called the Mud Pots, the Mud Volcanos or humorously the Mudd Trolls.

I visit this volcano all the time, and even photographed and filmed country singer Brian Shotwell here.  The earthquake map is by the USGS, and photos by me.

An Excerpt from James Needham, and Early Geologic Explorer to my Area



This image I took with an old Minolta 35 mm film camera, with T-Max film. 
I developed the film myself. This is Morongo Valley.



An Early Last Century Exploration of my Local Desert



An Excerpt from a book written near the turn of the last century, almost 100 years ago, Adventures in Scenery by James Needham. I believe it is out of print, but it can be found at University archives.
 

This is a geologists account of early California. It mentions the proterozoic Gneiss that surrounds my house in Morongo Valley. The typos are from whoever archived or published this old text. Enjoy!


"To the west of Palm Springs is San Gorgonio Pass, discovered 
in 1853, and hailed as the long looked for pass through the 
mountains by which a railroad from the east might reach the 
Pacific Coast. To the north is San Gorgonio Peak, at the east- 
ern end of the San Bernardino range, and to the south is the 
majestic Mount San Jacinto. The "pass" is a mountain valley 
formed by faulting of the rocks of the earth's crust. This break 
in the crust of the earth is the great San Andreas rift, which 
extends south and east of San Gorgonio Pass and north and west 
to and beyond San Francisco. Movement along this rift farther 
northwest, particularly near San Francisco, caused the earth- 
quake of April 18, 1906. Many faults or breaks in the crust 
of the earth occur in this region. The Morongo Valley, which 
separates the San Bernardino mountain range from the Little 
San Bernardino range, is a "mountain valley" formed by fault- 
ing. The fault of this latter valley is crosswise of the original 
drainage of Little, Big, and Dry Morongo creeks, which enter 
the valley from the San Bernadino mountains from the north- 
west. The waters of these creeks sink into the alluvium of the 
valley and the streams disappear, re-appearing again at the lower 
side of the valley and then flow over the rock-bottomed gorges to 
the Colorado Desert. The walls of Morongo Canyon are about 
300 feet high and are nearly vertical. The rock walls are com- 
posed of granitic gneiss beautifully laminated and very much 
distorted, twisted, and folded. The broad plain between "White- 
water River and Morongo Canyon is known as Conchilla Desert. 
It is thickly covered with many varieties of cactus, especially 
the large picturesque barrel cactus, and for this reason it has 
been labeled the Devil's Garden! Probably more cactuses, or 
more species of cactus, are observable here than anywhere else 
on the Colorado Desert. A Joshua Tree National Monument 
has been established in the Morongo Valley. It is worthy of 
note that a movement is on foot to establish a Joshua Tree park"

Published Geologist on Landers, Pioneer Town Local Basalt Volcanism

The Mojave Young Volcano System, and the hot magma below, is live and well in my opinion. Of course, we still do not know for sure. But is the local young volcanos within the ECSZ linked to the extension of the Great Basin region, which includes much of the Mojave Desert? Is this a rifting zone? Indeed it's a region of land pulling apart, as far as geologists usually agree. 

Here's a cool and fetching note from a paper written by a geologist about the area I live in, and about a young volcano I live close to. This from the paper: "searching for the pliocene: field trip guide to the southern exposures":

:86.9 (1.6) Continue past New Dixie Mine Road. Ruby Mountain to the right (west) may be one of the vents for local basalt flows. It is an alkaline basalt (basanite) intrusion and flow complex of late Miocene age (6-10 Ma) (Neville, 1986). The local termination of alkaline basalt volcanism near the San Bernardino Mountains appears to coincide with estimates of the beginning of transpres- sional tectonics for the region (Sadler and Reeder, 1983). Basalt from this source can be recognized by entrained megacrysts formed in the mantle of the chrome- diopside group, including kaersutite (Wilshire and Shervais, 1975)."

Felt Series of Three Strong Earthquakes Yesterday


Because I am very busy at work, I had to delay posting about three earthquakes I felt yesterday. I have about an hour of rare free time, and will share my interesting experience.

Yesterday morning, just before 10 am PST, in Palm Springs, a conversation I was having was interrupted by what at first seemed like an explosion. In fact later on, as I spoke with other people, most others reported hearing a bang or an explosion!

After the bang, the windows rattled and bowed just like they would from an explosion, and I went outside only to see a puddle of water vibrate. Then I was aware of the ground shaking a bit.

This event seemed to last about ten seconds, and it clearly felt like a 5 mag event. I looked on the USGS site, which took a while to report the event. Once it was up, the quakes were first reported at being 4.7 to 5.1. Three strong earthquakes were reported, along with a dozens of fore and aftershocks.

Recently I have learned that often the USGS lowers the magnitude of strong and high moderate earthquakes for insurance reasons. We live in a nation and a time where business and science mixes, and objectivity comes in second to money.

We need to go back to telling the truth with science. This event was clearly 5 mag and not 4.7.

Southern California Active Volcano at Salton Buttes In Mainstream Media


For more than a year and a half, I had been on top of Google if you goggle Salton Buttes, or Salton Buttes Volcano. I had been theorizing about the volcano there, and how it is a recently erupted one.

Five days ago the mainstream media picked up on it, after researchers confirmed that the rotten egg stench experienced in Southern California in August and September - are due to a nearby volcano. 

Personally, after the time of the earthquake swarm in Brawley, I have experienced the sulfur or ‘rotten egg’ smell, and experienced a yellow haze. That, in my opinion, is vog, or volcanic fog.

Recent articles now parallel the very words I have been saying all along in this blog, and even before that in various videos.

Indeed Southern California’s Salton Buttes Volcano is an active and young basalt based volcano, and one associated with a rifting zone. This blog repeats that point. I need to get my paper published and an advanced geology degree, and be better able to swim with these big boys that grabbed at the very theory I have been going on.

Here are articles from this week by the mainstream media:










Here are two videos of me actually being at Salton Buttes Volcano:






Here are my own videos on Salton Buttes, starting in 2010:

5.3 Magnitude Earthquake Along the San Andreas Fault

Today, about 15 hours ago, there was a 5.3 magnitude earthquake along the San Andreas fault, near King City, California. This is a bit south of Salinas. The quake was felt in the Bay Area, around Fresno and as far south as Santa Barbara.

This an area along the 700 mile long fault where there is a steady creep, and is an area of very many smaller earthquakes. It's not unusual to see a 4 mag quake in the area, and 3 mag quakes are common place. A 5 mag or more will occur in the area, but is less common.

What is interesting and noteworthy, is the fact that at the south end of the state, just south of where the San Andreas fault ends, we experienced two 5 mag plus earthquakes in Brawley, two months ago. Right after it, we had a series of 4 mag quakes on a parallel fault, the Elsinore fault, in Orange County. That area of Orange County had a similar quake swarm long before that!

It'll be interesting to see what other earthquakes will occur during this time of increased activity.

Sunday, August 26, 2012


Today, around midday, a strong series of earthquakes happened a few miles from Brawley, CA. Two of these earthquakes were 5 mag plus, a 5.5 and a 5.3. There are many 4 mag plus and 3 mag plus too in the same location, with some others scattered further out from brawley. But the main body of earthquakes is centrally located.

This is a strong earthquake swarm in a very active area that is within a rifting zone. Earthquake swarms are common in this area, but I haven't seen a swarm as powerful as this one. I felt this one too, and yesterday my dog had taken to his crate, which he uses as his doghouse sometimes. He usually does not do this unless he's worried about something. At the time of the earthquakes, I heard a little terrier how as he looked east, in the direction of the quake swarm. Last night, I heard a lot of strange booming too, and it seemed to be coming from the south. I was in Encinitas, Ca, just north of San Diego when I heard it. It was between 9 and 10 pm, and I was outside. Where I heard the dog howl, was at the same location at about 2 pm.

There is an active volcano just north of this swarm, and another about 30-40 miles south of it. This is an area of volcanism and moving magma due to the tectonic plate spreading in the area.

I suggest stocking up on at least two weeks worth of bottled water per person, and the same in canned food with an opener. Store these, along with essential meds in a study wooden box outside and away from any brick walls or stucco structures. Have a practical pair of shoes on hand too, and a flashlight. Carry such supplies in each car too. I've seen entire highways shut down due to quakes, and saw this a few times.

Here is the link to the 5.3 earthquake today:

Here's a list of the earthquakes. Look at the ones near brawley.
