Russia’s Gold Industrialists Union said on Wednesday the country’s output of the metal in the first quarter of 2010 is expected to decline by 10% from the 31.39 tonnes yielded in the first three months of 2009. No reasons were given to explain the forecast, and the association also said Russia produced 17.54 tonnes of gold in January and February 2010, without providing a comparison for the same period a year ago. The country occupied the sixth place in gold output in 2009.
