Platinum also set a lifetime high on positive fundamentals and tracking gold's rally. Silver touched two-month highs and was not far from its highest level in 27 years.
Spot gold jumped to $891.40 an ounce, surpassing the previous record of $881.10 reached on Tuesday. It was quoted at $883.60/884.40 at 1241 GMT, compared with $878.10/878.90 in New York late on Tuesday.
"This is an extension of the ongoing rally with very strong underlying interest in buying gold across geographic locations," said David Holmes, director of precious metals sales at Dresdner Kleinwort Investment bank.
