Major gold mining stocks fell in recent Tuesday trade after the price of the precious metal declined amid US strikes in the Strait of Hormuz that cast doubt on the outcome of Middle East peace talks.
Newmont (ASX:NEM) shed nearly 3%, while Northern Star Resources (ASX:NST) and Evolution Mining (ASX:EVN) both fell nearly 2%.
Spot gold prices were down 0.8% on worries that the US strikes could jeopardize peace negotiations, Bloomberg reported. US forces targeted missile launch sites in Iran as well as boats that were attempting to lay mines in the Strait of Hormuz, the report said, citing a US Central Command statement.
