India, May 11 -- Gold prices were sharply lower on Monday while the dollar index advanced as a lack of progress in the U.S.-Iran peace talks sent oil prices soaring and revived inflation fears.

Spot gold fell 1.2 percent to $4,659.22 an ounce while U.S. gold futures were down 1.4 percent at $4,666.80.
