Although 270 earthqakes have hit Tenerifa and Gran Canaria, the largest only hit 3.2 on the richter scale. And National Seismic Network chief Emilio Carreño said the earthquakes were “not usually associated with volcanology”. He told Canary News that some areas of spain Spain can see up to 600 earthquakes a year with no concerns. University College London's Dr Simon Day told MailOnline: “Unless the earthquakes continue and become more intense and shallower over a period of weeks, I wouldn't see any major cause for concern from this recent seismic activity as reported by IGN.”
