Tectonic earthquakes occur anywhere in the earth where there is sufficient stored elastic strain energy to drive fracture propagation along a fault plane. The sides of a fault move past each other smoothly

This pressure must be released somehow‚ so when the pressure becomes too great for the plates to withstand‚ one part of a plate gives way to the pressure by rising above the other part
