These faults had evidence of recent activity. However, a 2 km (1.2 mi) segment of an approximately north–south trending, southwest-dipping reverse fault was discovered north of the village of Sarighamish, which was situated in the area of maximum damage. The Miocene silicified <a href="/wiki/Alunite" title="Alunite">alunite</a> hanging wall in the southwestern overthrusts alluvial deposits of the Quaternary. This exposed section of fault may be part of the Germirud Fault; a 60 km (37 mi) structure with a similar strike. Seismic activity progressed eastwards when another M<sub>s</sub>  6.7 earthquake ruptured along the nearby Sangavar Fault in 1896.<sup id="cite_ref-Berberian14_3-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-Berberian14-3"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>3<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> There remains an uncertainty about the association with the exposed fault and earthquake.
