China’s gold imports from Hong Kong jumped 30 percent in September from a month earlier, said the Census and Statistics Department of the Hong Kong government.

Mainland China bought 57 metric tons from Hong Kong in September, up from 43.7 tons in August, the data showed. The imports probably are “a monthly record” as the country imported more than 200 tons in 2010, according to Albert Cheng, managing director at the World Gold Council. China doesn’t publish gold trade data.
