Is carbon build up on the heads and piston tops a sign of bad fuel mixture?

Or can it also be a sign of burning oil?

The color of it is very black and crusty in texture. The cylinder walls are very clean and shiney with no evidence of oil getting past the rings. There is not even a lip at the top of the cylinders indicating minimal wear.

Thanks,
Bill
