Gold is a metal found in the Overworld and the Nether. It generates naturally as gold ore and Nether gold ore, which can be smelted into gold ingots, and as blocks of gold in bastions. The gold ingots can be crafted into blocks, items, tools, and armor. Gold can also be used to barter with piglins and craft golden carrots, one of the most nourishing foods in the game.
