Studies on carbon isotopes of bulk carbonates from Longan and Baping sections of Lower Carboniferous in Guangxi of China show that the stable carbon isotope compositions in carbonate rocks of the isolated platform and deep slope facies were resistant to the influence of early meteoric diagenesis and late burial diagenesis. Three major positive carbon isotope excursions have been recognized in Lower Carboniferous in South China. The first major positive δ13C shift of 4.19‰ occurred in the middle part of Siphonodella isosticha-upper Siphonodella crenulata zone (Tournaisian); the second with an amplitude of 4.65‰ occurred near the Tournaisian/Visean boundary; and the third of 2.23‰ in the lower part of Gnathodus bollandensis zone. The three positive shifts of δ13C can be correlated with global carbon isotope excursions and are consistent with the fall in global sea level, indicating that abundant organic carbon burial, lowering of atmospheric CO2, and glaciation may have occurred during these time intervals.
