Shallow depth of 7km.
Could be associated with the Keripehi fault? The epicentres are about 10km West however of where all sources I can find suggest that is thought to run.

Re: 2 small shallow quakes - Matamata area
Something woke me up at approx 4am from a deep sleep. Thought I'd heard a loud noise or similar. Got up and searched house inside and out for intruder or signs of forced entry. Never found anything, now realise this may have been the cause.
