The quake hit at an intermediate depth of 77. km beneath the epicenter near La Troncal, Canar, Ecuador, in the morning on Saturday, May 10th, 2025, at 7:13 am local time. The exact magnitude, epicenter, and depth of the quake might be revised within the next few hours or minutes as seismologists review data and refine their calculations, or as other agencies issue their report. A second report was later issued by the German Research Centre for Geosciences (GFZ), which listed it as a magnitude 4.8 earthquake. Other agencies reporting the same quake include the Institute of Geophysics of the National Polytechnic School in Quito (IGEPN) at magnitude 4.9, The Colombian Geological Service (SGC) at magnitude 4.7, and the citizen-seismograph network of RaspberryShake at magnitude 4.8. Based on the preliminary seismic data, the quake should not have caused any significant damage, but was probably felt by many people as light vibration in the area of the epicenter. Weak shaking might have been felt in La Troncal (pop. 36,400) located 3 km from the epicenter, Naranjito (pop. 34,200) 34 km away, Naranjal (pop. 32,000) 42 km away, Milagro (pop. 133,500) 46 km away, Yaguachi Nuevo (pop. 27,900) 56 km away, Eloy Alfaro (pop. 315,700) 65 km away, Guayaquil (pop. 2,723,700) 69 km away, Samborondon (pop. 24,100) 70 km away, and Daule (pop. 173,700) 98 km away.
