'''Gold''' is a [[Minecraft:metal]] found in the [[Minecraft:Overworld]] and [[Minecraft:the Nether]]. It [[Minecraft:World generation|generate]]s naturally as [[Minecraft:gold ore]] and [[Minecraft:Nether gold ore]], which can be smelted into [[Minecraft:gold ingot]]s, and as [[Minecraft:blocks of gold]] in [[Minecraft:bastion]]s. The gold ingots can be crafted into blocks, items, [[Minecraft:tool]]s, and [[Minecraft:armor]]. Gold can also be used to [[Minecraft:barter]] with [[Minecraft:piglin]]s and craft [[Minecraft:golden carrot]]s, one of the most nourishing [[Minecraft:food]]s in the game.
