<p>Anxious investors were given further cause for concern on Tuesday as developments on the Korean peninsula added to worries over Ireland&#8217;s debt crisis.</p>
<p>The FTSE 100 Index fell to its lowest level in more than a month, dropping 1% or 57.7 points to 5623.2, after tracking heavy losses in Asian markets as investors worried about other financially weak European countries.</p>
<p>The session deteriorated when it emerged North Korea had fired dozens of artillery rounds into rival South Korea&#8217;s territory.</p>
<p>Mining stocks were among those on the back foot, while banks again suffered losses on concerns about their exposure in Europe&#8217;s debt crisis.</p>
<p>Royal Bank of Scotland fell 0.6p to 39.3p and Lloyds Banking Group dropped 1.6p to 62.3p, while Barclays was off 7.6p to 262.4p.</p>
<p>On the results front, pubs group Mitchells &#038; Butlers fell 4% despite a 26% rise in full-year profits and a surge in food sales at the start of its new financial year. Investors were disappointed at the company&#8217;s failure to reinstate its dividend, leading to a fall in shares of 16.3p to 337.5p.</p>
<p>Bank note printer De La Rue was also lower, down 34p to 589p, after reporting a sharp fall in underlying half-year profits due to irregularities in paper production at a factory this year. It said the financial impact of the problems remained unclear.</p>
