Where to Find Gold

Gold ore can be found deep underground and is used to obtain gold ingots through smelting it in a furnace. Gold ore can only be mined with an iron pickaxe or above and is usually found around layers 9-16 in groups of 3-5. In mesa biomes gold ore can be found at any elevation. Gold ingots are primarily used to to create golden tools, armour and swords, as well as clocks, gold blocks, powered rails and gold nuggets. Gold ingots can also sometimes be found in minecarts with a chest in abandoned mineshafts, and desert temple chests.
