'''Nether gold ore''' is a type of [[Minecraft:gold ore]] found in [[Minecraft:the Nether]] that drops [[Minecraft:gold nugget]]s instead of [[Minecraft:raw gold]] when broken. As with other [[Minecraft:gold]] blocks, breaking Nether gold ore will anger nearby [[Minecraft:piglin]]s.<br />
<br />
== Obtaining ==<br />
=== Breaking ===<br />
Nether gold ore requires a pickaxe to be mined. If mined with any other tool or by hand, it drops nothing.<br />
<br />
{{breaking row|horizontal=1|Nether Gold Ore|pickaxe|wood|drop=0}}<br />
<br />
Nether gold ore drops 2-6 [[Minecraft:gold nugget]]s when mined with any [[Minecraft:pickaxe]]. [[Minecraft:Fortune]] has a 33.3% chance to multiply the drops by 2, Fortune II has a 25% chance to multiply the drops by 2 or 3 and Fortune III has a 20% chance each to multiply the [[Minecraft:drops]] by 2, 3, or 4 for a maximum possible drop of 24 golden nuggets. The average number of nuggets from Fortune III is 8.8, which is less than an ingot; therefore it is slightly more efficient to mine Nether gold ore with [[Minecraft:Silk Touch]] and [[Minecraft:Smelting|smelt]] it into [[Minecraft:gold ingot]]s.<br />

Nether gold ore also drops {{xp|0|1}} when broken.<br />
<br />
=== Natural generation ===<br />
Nether gold ore generates in [[Minecraft:the Nether]] in the form of [[Minecraft:ore (feature)|ore blob]]s. Nether gold ore attempts to replace [[Minecraft:netherrack]] 10 times per [[Minecraft:chunk]] in blobs of size 0–16, from levels 10 to 117, in all Nether biomes. {{IN|java}}, in [[Minecraft:Basalt Deltas|basalt deltas]], Nether gold ore attempts to generate 20 times per chunk instead, as there are fewer valid generation areas.<br />
<br />

<br />
== Usage ==<br />
=== Piglins ===<br />
[[Minecraft:Piglin]]s become hostile toward [[Minecraft:player]]s that [[Minecraft:breaking|mine]] the ore, regardless if the player is wearing [[Minecraft:gold]] [[Minecraft:armor]] or is under the [[Minecraft:invisibility]] effect. The same case applies if the player mines gold of any type, not just the ore. If any Nether gold ore is dropped and in its [[Minecraft:Item (entity)|item]] form, piglins run toward any Nether gold ore and examine it for 6 to 8 seconds after picking it up.<br />
<br />
=== Smelting ingredient ===<br />
{{Smelting<br />

}}<br />
<br />
=== Note blocks ===<br />
Nether gold ore can be placed under [[Minecraft:note block]]s to produce "bass drum" sound.<br />
<br />
=== Sulfur cube ===<br />
{{In development|drop=Chaos Cubed|section=1}}<br />
[[Minecraft:Sulfur cube]]s have the ability to absorb Nether gold ore, either through picking it up or being interacted with it. This provides the medicine ball/slow flat effect to the mob when hitting it.<br />
