Gold futures ended lower amid light trading yesterday as bullion investors focused on beaten-down gold jewellery demand amid a global downturn, but economic uncertainties also provided underlying support to prices. December gold settled at $941.70 (U.S.), down $3.10.

In other metals, platinum was down 0.2 per cent at $1,234.50 per ounce. Dealers said however that prices may find support depending on developments in South Africa, the world's top producer of the precious metal.


Impala Platinum, the world's second-biggest platinum producer, said on Thursday it was seeking further talks with a South African union planning an indefinite strike next week.


Silver rose 0.3 per cent to $13.96, following gold and base metals, while palladium fell 0.3 per cent to $271.00.
