During the Early-Middle Ordovician, the Yangtze Platform in South China was drowned, as indicated by the replacement of pure grey grainstones and packstones of the Hunghuayuan Formation by purple red, argillaceous limestone of the Zitai Formation and correlative units, which are mixed siliciclastic and carbonate deposits. The Xiangshuidong Section, located in Songzi City, southwestern Hubei Province, was selected to study the process in detail. Cluster analysis of point-count groups of the Hunghuayuan and the Zitai formations, indicates that the former contains six microfacies: MF-1 peloidal grainstone, MF-2 thrombolitic grainstone, MF-3 oolitic grainstone, MF-4 bioclastic grainstone, MF-5 lithoclastic grainstone, MF-6 interreef bioclastic grain-packstone, indicating a shelf setting before drowning, while the latter contains seven microfacies: MF-7 bioclastic grainstone, MF-8 bioclastic grain- to packstone, MF-9 bioclastic packstone, MF-10 bioclastic wackestone, MF-11 argillaceous bioclastic wackestone, MF-12 open-marine bioclastic wackestone, MF-13 calcimudstone, indicating the ramp setting during and after the drowning. The drowning was gradual and fluctuating, starting as a marginal shoal, through the inner ramp, and becoming a stable ramp setting. This drowning is mainly attributed to a global sea-level rise, and an increase of terrigenous supply that resulted from local tectonic movement (i.e. the initiation of collision between the South China and Cathaysia blocks). After drowning, red offshore marine facies were well developed along the platform margin, indicating an oxic sea bottom environment during the first acme of GOBE in South China. The changes in environments associated with this transition may have provided new evolutionary opportunities that contributed to the Middle Ordovician diversification. •Point-counting and cluster analysis were applied to divide carbonate microfacies.•We investigated the process of the Early-Middle Ordovician Yangtze Platform drowning.•The interaction of drowning event and the GOBE, as well as their controlling factors
