“…Sedimentological work has been undertaken on Givetian–Frasnian platform lithofacies (Kerans, ; Warren & Kempton, ; Copp, ) and cycle types (Read, ; Hocking & Playford, ; Shen et al ., ), as well as detailed examination of specific platforms, platform margins and patch reefs (Benn, ; Cooper et al ., ; Hall, ; Hurley, ; Holmes & Christie‐Blick, ; Hocking et al ., ; Brownlaw et al ., ; George & Chow, ; Ward, ; Wood & Oppenheimer, ; Shen et al ., ; George et al ., ; Adams & Hasler, ). Some of these studies have highlighted cycle types in addition to those originally described by Read (), as well as platforms or parts of platforms which have weakly developed cycles or apparently non‐cyclic intervals (Hurley, ; George & Chow, ).…”
