Abstract
The Frasnian-Famennian (F-F) mass extinction is one of the “Big Five” biotic crises during the Phanerozoic, whereas the cause of this catastrophic event still remains debated. Here we present for the first time high-resolution Zn and Sr isotope data obtained by a sequential leaching procedure for carbonate rocks across the F-F boundary from the Fuhe section in South China. Both δ66Zn and 87Sr/86Sr values rapidly increase in the Lower and Upper...
