    GOLD demand slid to its lowest in eight years in the last quarter as jewellery buying fell and inflows into bullion-backed exchange traded funds dried up, data from the World Gold Council showed on Thursday.

    Overall demand fell 9 per cent to 915 tonnes, its weakest since the third quarter of 2009, the WGC said.
