THE LATE CAMBRIAN SPICE (d13C) EVENT AND THE SAUK II–SAUK III REGRESSION: NEW EVIDENCE FROM LAURENTIAN BASINS IN UTAH, IOWA, AND NEWFOUNDLAND

ABSTRACT: Carbon isotope data from Upper Cambrian sections in three Laurentian basins in northern Utah, central Iowa, and western Newfoundland record a large positive d13C excursion (SPICE event) of up to 1 5‰.
