The earthquake struck southern Mongolia at 11:37:53 local time. Rupture was complex, with multiple scenarios proposed. The original hypothesis was that the earthquake occurred along the strike-slip Bogd fault and ruptured for 560 km (350 mi),[1] however, the more recently adopted conclusion is that there was a 250–300 km (160–190 mi) long strike-slip rupture at a width of 20–30 km (12–19 mi) with 100 km (62 mi) of simultaneous reverse faulting in a roughly east–west direction. Offsets from surface rupture reached up to 8.85 m of strike-slip rupture, with 9 m vertical offsets, and an average slip of 3–4 m. According to a study on the earthquake's surface rupture, the authors consider the rupture the "world's best preserved surface rupture of a great earthquake". The average slip decreased from west to east. Ruptured fault splays were observed up to 30 km (19 mi) away from the main fault trace. Large aftershocks struck the epicentral region after the mainshock. Shortly after the mainshock, a Ms 6.5 event struck. On April 7, 1958, another large earthquake measuring M 6.8 struck, located in the epicentral region of the mainshock.ImpactDespite attaining the maximum value on the Modified Mercalli intensity scale of XII (Extreme), the earthquake did not cause significant disruption to population centers owing to its remote and unpopulated location. Dzun Bogd, Bayan-leg and Baruin Bogd, however, were destroyed. Due to good weather, shepherds of these herding communities were outside, which limited the death toll to 30. Major geological effects were also observed. Surface offsets reaching 9 m of both strike-slip and vertical motion were observed after the event. Subsidence was also observed. At the Bakhar Mountains [ceb], a 15 km (9.3 mi) long and 800 m (2,600 ft) wide portion of the earth subsided due to the earthquake. In the Bitüüt valley, a large landslide was triggered.

The Tsetserleg/Цэцэрлэг/ earthquake. The earthquake struck remote north-western Mongolia near Tsetserleg Sum of Huvsgul /Хөвсгөл/ Province at 17:40 local time. The Mw 8.0 earthquake had a clear left-lateral strike-slip surface rupture along the Tsetserleg fault for 130 km (81J mi), with an additional 60 km (37 mi) of rupture continuing northeastward and not breaking the surface.July 23, 1905. The Bulnay/Булнай/ earthquake hit remote north-western Mongolia near Asgat Sum, Zavkhan/Завхан Province at 10:46 local time. The Mw 8.3 earthquake ruptured along multiple faults in the Bolnai fault system for a total rupture length of 455 km (283 mi). Rupture was unusually deep, with a maximum depth of 70 km (43 mi). The earthquake nucleated at the junction of the Bolnai and Teregtiin faults, and ruptured along both.They created massive fault lines across the Bulnay and Bogd regions. The Bolnay event remains one of the largest recorded intracontinental earthquakes in history.
