This quake is close enough to the Chile event to very possibly be related/triggered by it.

The rupture zone for the Chile event has spread a considerable distance along the subduction zone. this will keep seismologists and tectonists at it for a long time.

Apparently earthquakes in that region of Argentina aren’t unknown. My guess is the damage in that area will be fairly minimal.
