Abstract:
The margins of the Canning Basin of Western Australia were the loci for extensive carbonate accumulation throughout Middle to Late Devonian times. The irregular coastline of the Lennard Shelf produced a variety of depostional settings, including isolated structures that were detached from the main coastline. The diverse array of depositional environments (platform-top, reef, foreslope, and basin) presents some challenges for detailed correlation at local and regional scales.
