US gold prices were heading for their best quarter in more than eight years on Friday, having hit a series of record highs in recent sessions as the start of US monetary easing boosted the appeal of non-yielding bullion.

Spot gold was down 1 per cent at $2,643.88 per ounce by 1742 GMT after scaling all-time highs for four consecutive sessions. The market hit a historic $2,685.42 on Thursday.

US gold futures settled 0.9 per cent lower at $2,668.1. The precious metal, a traditional hedge against geopolitical and economic uncertainty, has gained around 14 per cent this quarter, its strongest performance since the first quarter of 2016 and is up around 28 per cent this year, the most in 14 years.

With bets on more rate cuts in future after last week's half-percentage-point cut by the Federal Reserve, speculative demand for the metal has driven gold to "oversold" technical levels. Even so, some banks expect prices could rise towards $3,000.

Silver prices surged, benefiting from a spillover impact from gold, though some analysts warn that the rally may fade.

Spot silver fell 1.8 per cent to $31.46 per ounce after hitting its highest since December 2012 at $32.71 on Thursday.

Platinum eased 0.4 per cent to $1,003.57, while palladium fell 3.7 per cent to $1,008.82.
