Fig. 9

Microfacies of the Anisian shallow-water carbonates and their drowning sequence. a Ooidal grainstone with shell and algae fragments. Most probably Middle Anisian. Sample SRB 486 from the Katušnica River. Width of the photo: 1.4 cm. b Marly packstone with shells and gastropods, crinoids, echinoids, microbial encrusted components and other components from a shallow-water area. This facies type could represent the drowning sequence of the Middle Anisian Ravni (Steinalm) carbonate ramp. Sample SRB 485 from the Katušnica River. Width of the photo: 1.4 cm. c Microbial slightly dolomitic limestone with few shell fragments. This microfacies is typical for the late Early to Middle Anisian (upper Gutenstein type) carbonate ramp. Sample SRB 560 from Radoševo area. Width of the photo: 1.4 cm
