Which of the following types of faults does NOT generate earthquakes?

A) normal fault
B) reverse fault
C) thrust fault
D) strike-slip fault
E) all types of faults can generate earthquakes

Strike-slip Fault

A type of fault where the movement of tectonic plates is horizontal, parallel to the fault line.

Reverse Fault

A type of geological fault where the hanging wall moves upward relative to the footwall, usually as a result of compressional forces.

Thrust Fault

A type of fault in geology where the fault plane angles downwards and the older, deeper strata are pushed above younger, surface strata due to compressional forces.
