Scientists studying it have said the initial tremor was actually two separate powerful quakes, which together lasted for two minutes. It was one of the most complex quakes ever recorded on land, said Geonet, the national quake-monitoring body.

GEONET

Most earthquakes are the result of rupture on a single fault plane. But the twin quakes led to the rupture of at least six faults, including a newly identified one at Waipapa Bay.

Prof Andy Nicol of New Zealand's University of Canterbury told the BBC the Kaikoura earthquake started in the south and travelled north. The largest seismic energies were released about 70km (44 miles) north of the epicentre at Culverden.
