India, Oct. 6 -- Gold prices were modestly higher on Tuesday as falling oil prices and lower bond yields helped ease concerns around inflation and interest rates.
Spot gold edged up 0.30 percent to $4,152.68 an ounce while U.S. gold futures were up 0.6 percent at $4,179.55.
Oil prices were sharply lower, with Brent crude prices falling nearly 2 percent to trade below $99 a barrel on signs of resilient Middle Eastern crude exports and the G7's announcement of a 100-million-barrel coordinated stock release.
