Gold is a valuable metal. Native gold ore is a source of gold nuggets, which can be smelted into gold bars. However, making native gold items is more advisable because it only takes one gold nugget to make a piece of furniture, as opposed to three bars of gold metal.

Gold can be used for minting at a metalsmith's forge, creating coins used in the economy system. Using coins as trade goods is not advisable as they have no quality levels.

Another use of gold is to build furniture such as statues to be displayed all over a fortress, or to build roads and/or bridges of great value.
