Gold fell nearly 3 percent on Monday as oil prices slipped more than $2 a barrel after OPEC’s decision to leave production unchanged at a meeting at the weekend, and as the dollar firmed against the euro.
Spot gold fell to a session low of $788.90 an ounce, and was quoted at $789.30/791.80 at 1143 GMT, down from $813.00 an ounce late on Friday.
