#+BEGIN_NAME PARAMETERS CONTENTS #+END_NAME
NAME can contain any non-whitespace character.
PARAMETERS can contain any character other than new line, and can be omitted.
If NAME is “CENTER”, it will be a “center block”. If it is “QUOTE”, it will be a “quote block”.
If the block is neither a center block, a quote block or a block element, it will be a “special block”.

or collect these example blocks in subtrees with export tags/properties.
AFAIK export of these block types is backend specific, e.g. ox-ascii.el

might treat example block different than ox-html.el, so thats where to
look.

gives some hints too. Using drawers instead of example blocks would
enable you to toggle export documentwise.
I asked a similar 'bigger' question before, and remember that the answer
was more or less 'the block name says it all'.
However, here is a (dense) description of the org syntax:
