Give three examples of areas impacted by earthquakes in south africa?

South Africa is in the vicinity of the African rift system, which is being pulled by a few millimeters annually. The earthquakes in here are caused by the slip on the fault line and by the release of stored elastic energy, but also some of the mining activities can contribute to the earthquakes.
Examples:
1. 29.09.1969, (near Tulbagh) the strongest and most destructive so far with 6.3 on the Richter scale.
2. 09.03.2005, (Stilfontein, North West) 5.3 on Richter scale, two miners killed.
3. 05.08.2014, (near Orkney, North West) 5.5 on Richter scale, lasted for 90 seconds, felt in Botswana and Durban as well.
