Gold Ore is a naturally occurring Resource in the world. It can be found within Granite.
It appears to be most common in Rainforest, 40-70 blocks under the surface, but can be found in many different biomes.
Gold Ore can be mined and refined to create Gold Ingots.
Appearance[edit | edit source]
Gold Ore veins have light streaks running through them with a subtle gold color. They look similar to the surrounding Granite and can be easy to overlook.
