A quick google on < Lagerstatten "Burgess shale" Chengjiang > yields 96
hits, some of which might be useful, or at least helpful to point further
(some, just with names, locations and age are pretty basic, but then you can
search again for which whatever interests you most)... Note that some of
these sites contain links for further reading.
Examples include:
("Cambrian Lagerstatten - This page lists some of the better known Cambrian
lagerstatten..." www.peripatus.gen.nz/paleontology/CamLag.html )
(Lagerstatten Catalogue: University of Bristol -
http://palaeo.gly.bris.ac.uk/Palaeofiles/Lagerstatten/ ).

Also note that adding "taphonomy" to the search still yields 39 hits - you
might find information more to your likeing there.

You might also try Sirius Passet, Rhynie Chert, Mazon Creek, Willwood
Formation, Green River Formation, Messel Shale, Solnhofen Limestone,
Phosphorites du Quercy, London Clay. (Heavily biased towards birds, so
sue me.)
Have a look at
http://palaeo.gly.bris.ac.uk/Palaeofiles/Lagerstatten/
though surely a search engine would have got you there more easily.
Cheers,
