Where: Manitoba, Canada (58.0° N, 95.0° W: paleocoordinates 7.0° S, 51.0° W)
• coordinate estimated from map
• outcrop-level geographic resolution
When: 1 Member (Caution Creek Formation), Richmondian (449.6 - 445.5 Ma)
• bed-level stratigraphic resolution
Environment/lithology: dolomitic, gray mudstone and shelly/skeletal packstone
