The most active gold contract on the Tokyo Commodity Exchange, February 2012 , inched up after an earthquake of magnitute 8.8 struck the north coast of Japan, while the rubber contract for August 2011 barely moved, dealers said on Friday.
The massive quake shook buildings in the capital Tokyo, causing "many injuries", at least one fire and triggering a four-metre (13-ft) tsunami, NHK television and witnesses reported.
