Gold Ore

''This page is about the ore. For the solid gold block, see Gold (block).'' Gold ore is commonly found inside stone blocks underground. Currently it has no function, and will continue to have no function in sandbox mode; it will be used as a type of ore in other game modes (namely Survival) upon their release. It cannot be placed by players in survival mode, but, as of version 0.28, players can place it in creative mode. It drops 1 to 3 gold blocks in Survival.
