France's industrial output rose by 1.3 percent in November from a month earlier, the French national statistics bureau Insee reported Friday. According to Insee, acceleration in the nation's industrial production stemmed mainly from a sharp increase in coke and refined petroleum products which jumped by 22.2 percent over the period "due to the resumption of a refinery." Mining and energy activity also gained ground in November with a 6.3 percent rise after it had fallen by 4.2 percent a month earlier. Manufacturing, in the meantime, inched up by 0.2 percent with output of electrical and electronic equipments down by 1.4 percent.
