Carbon isotope measurements were made on bulk sediments from the Paleogene calcareous sequence recovered at Ocean Drilling Program Site 762 (Hole 762C) on the central Exmouth Plateau, eastern Indian Ocean. The very positive d13C values that characterize the early/late Paleocene boundary and the very...
