Gold prices surged past $1,800 an ounce on Thursday as investors bought up the safe haven as markets around the world slump due to ongoing fears about the global economy.
In early trade the price of the precious metal soared to a record $1,814.50-$1,815.50 an ounce.
The record came as equities markets in Asia slumped in early trade, with Tokyo losing almost two percent, Seoul off four percent and Sydney 1.5 percent lower.
