Gold dips in Asia after latest U.N. sanctions on NKorea.  
Gold prices fell in Asia on Tuesday with tensions on the Korean peninsula eyed after fresh U.N. economic sanctions against Pyongyang that were seen as weaker than expected, or pushed, by the U.S.  "Under the new sanctions resolution passed by the UN Security Council on 11 September, UN members would only need to cap oil exports to North Korea at the average level over the past 12 months, although the new UN resolution also bans exports of natural gas liquids and condensates and caps exports of refined petroleum products to North Korea at 2 million barrels per year for the 2018 calendar year and 500,000 barrels for the last quarter of 2017." Overnight, gold prices remained on the downside on Monday, as concerns over the impact of Hurricane Irma and tensions with North Korea continued to subside. Market participants had been worried about a potential North Korean missile test on Saturday, to mark the anniversary of the founding of the nation.
