There have been 2 significant earthquakes in NZ and they were the Napier earthquake in 1931 and the Edgecumbe earthquake in 1987… the only information I could find on and earthquake in 1993 is this http://www.royalsociety.org.nz/Site/publish/Journals/nzjgg/1998/17.aspx this might be helpful too http://www.mtaspiring.school.nz/Tephra/ThewhereandwhenofNZearthquakes.html but basically I don’t recall any major earthquake that caused any major damage to any part of the country in 1993 (however we do experience 200 earthquakes a year (thats news to me!) most are too small to be felt)
