In metals markets on Wednesday, gold added $4 to $650.60/$651.35 after going as high as $655.45 earlier. Three-month copper was also higher, gaining $35 to $7,805 per tonne ahead of news as to whether or not workers at Escondida mine in Chile would go out on strike. BHP Billiton, which controls the mine, was expected to make an offer to the workers soon.
