A 6.4 magnitude earthquake has struck Argentina late on Sunday according to the US Geological Survey.
The centre of the quake hit 25 kilometers southwest of San Juan, the north western region of the country and close to Chile.
It was measured as fairly deep below ground, striking more than 115 kilometers below the Earth's surface, which lessens the effects.
It is the second quake to hit the region in eight days. The USGS said there was a low likelihood of damage or casualties.
A 6.2 magnitude quake had hit northwestern Argentina, at a depth of about 99 kilometers, and no serious injuries were reported.
