‘Reawakened’ faults could trigger big Okla. earthquakes

They’ve been asleep since before the dinosaurs roamed Earth and now we’re waking them up.

Long-dormant, 300-million-year-old fault lines across Oklahoma are being “reawakened” by recent small earthquakes that have been previously linked to the fracking process, scientists reported in a new study out this week.

The faults could trigger much higher-magnitude and more destructive quakes than most of the smaller ones that have plagued the state in recently.
