In January 2012 two new sets of cracks appeared to the SW and east of the center, one of the cracks was oriented SWS-ENE.

“Bump” of uplifted ground with line of associated mud vents
Fault with orientation of 278 degrees, looking east
Diagram showing the location of active mud vents and faults on the tassik, What is clearly seen is that the location of active vents does not coincide with the location of the cracks, their orientations however are similar.
