Karachi: Gold in Pakistan continued to race towards record-high levels as the price jumped by nearly 2% on Monday.

The price jacked up owing to the economic uncertainties brewing as a result of the devastations caused by the catastrophic flash floods.

Data released by the All Pakistan Sarafa Gems and Jewellers Association (APSGJA) showed that the price of gold has jumped by Rs3,000 per tola and Rs2,572 per 10 grams to Rs156,000 and Rs133,745 in Pakistan on Saturday.

Cumulatively, the price of yellow metal surged by Rs7,300 per tola during the week ended September 10.

In the international market, the price of yellow metal rose by $15 per ounce to settle at $1,732.
