Prices for precious metals were higher on Friday on hopes that rallying equities markets will support demand.
In New York, December gold added $8.00 to $681.90 per troy ounce for a gain of 0.6 percent over the week after the US dollar weakened versus the euro, falling to a three-week low before rebounding in relation to the shared currency.
December silver was up 27 cents to $12.23 per troy ounce for a gain of 2.3 percent on the day and 1.1 percent for the week, while it remained 5.5 percent lower for the year so far.
October platinum, meanwhile, gained $11.50 to $1,271.60 per troy ounce.
