Gold futures settled on Tuesday at their lowest level in six weeks on bets that Chinese demand for the metal will take a hit as the nation gears up for Lunar New Year celebrations.

Gold for April delivery GCJ5, -0.14%  fell $18.50, or 1.5%, to settle at $1,208.60 an ounce on Comex. Prices, based on the most-active contracts, haven’t settled at a level this low since Jan. 5.
