Gold Ore

Gold ore is one of the rarest types of mineral blocks found underground.

Natural generation
Gold ore can generate in the Overworld in the form of mineral veins. Gold ore attempts to generate 2 times per chunk in veins of size 1-9, from levels 0 to 31, in all biomes.

Gold ore also attempts to generate 20 times per chunk in veins of size 1-9, from levels 32 to 80, within any type of badlands, or within a chunk that is at least partially occupied by such a biome.

Breaking
Gold ore drops as an item if mined by an iron pickaxe or higher. If mined by any other tool, it drops nothing. Unlike most ores, gold ore does not require Silk Touch to be obtained, and instead always drops itself.

Piglins
Piglins become hostile toward players who mine gold ore. Piglins will also run towards any gold ores on the ground, and inspect it for 6 to 8 seconds before putting it in their inventory.
