Lithology and environment
| Primary lithology: | floatstone |
| Includes fossils? | Y |
| Lithology description: alveolitid-thamnoporoid floatstone, light to middle grey mudstone or bioclastic and micritic wackestone matrix; intergradation to MF-B5a, MF-B5d, MF-B5h, MF-B5i; examples: Beds B11-3, B13 undifferentiated, B13e-3, top reef 2C, top biostrome; light- to dark grey, thin bedded limestones, moderately common to very abundant reef builders; in many variants, reef builders float in fine-grained matrix (destructed coral reef gardens); variants MF-B5a to MF-5i grade into each other | |
| Environment: | platform/shelf-margin reef |
| Geology comments: deposition on a drowned platform below the fair-weather base, persisting influence of storms | |
