• outcrop-level geographic resolution
When: Bee Low Limestones Formation, Asbian (340.0 - 336.0 Ma)
• group of beds-level stratigraphic resolution

• consists predominantly of grey to pale-grey calcarenitic limestones...during asbian times, a micritic apron-reef facies formed extensive fringing mudbanks on the flanks of this platform [a shallow marine shelf or platform limestone].
