The Oaxaca Fault is a significant geological feature located in southern Mexico, particularly within the state of Oaxaca. It is part of the complex tectonic system of the region, which is influenced by the interactions of several geological plates, including the North American Plate and the Cocos Plate. The fault is known for its potential to generate seismic activity, including earthquakes, due to the movements of these tectonic plates.
