Plates slide past each other horizontally, storing elastic strain that is released in earthquakes.Both plates are stationary and earthquakes occur only from local mining activity.The crust folds without any fault movement, so earthquakes never occur.Plates move apart and new oceanic crust is created at a mid-ocean ridge.
