Gold Sector Faces Heavy Selling Pressure

The ASX mining sector experienced a sharp pullback as the gold price moved towards US$4,330 per ounce. Concerns surrounding escalating Middle East tensions and a global bond market sell-off contributed to expectations that the US Federal Reserve could face pressure to tighten monetary policy further to contain inflation.Against this backdrop, 

• Evolution Mining (ASX: EVN) fell 4.4%,
• Greatland Resources (ASX: GGP) declined 7.5%, 
• Northern Star Resources (ASX: NST) dropped 4.8%.

The moves highlighted the sensitivity of gold equities to changing expectations for commodity prices, bond yields and interest rates.
