In short:

Another magnitude-4.5 earthquake has hit the Hunter region on Saturday, a day after a similar event at the same location.

There were no injuries, with some residents in Sydney reporting they felt the quake.

The epicentres of both quakes are near BHP's Mount Arthur coal mine and the proposed site of a nuclear power plant.
