Gold
Gold is a metal resource from vanilla Minecraft. Although infrequently used in IC², it has several important applications.
Forms[edit]
These forms of iron are seen during ore processing:

Uses[edit]
Gold is mostly used in cable, item casing, or plate form, and is used in the following:
The other important use of gold is producing Tiny Pile of Silver Dust during the third stage of a complete ore processing chain.
- As IC² does not generate silver ore, this is the only method of acquiring silver (in the absence of any other mods that do).
Crafting[edit]
Basic crafting is the same for (almost) every metal. Any pre-ingot form, except for the Tiny Pile of Gold Dust, can be smelted into an ingot.
Smelting anything but dust is a waste of resources, though - check the ore processing page to see how to maximize your output.
9 ingots craft into a block and vice versa.
Dust comes from 9 small piles, but you can't craft small piles out of a single dust like you can craft ingots out of a block.
For parts that you make using this metal, plates and item casings and so forth, there's a page for that already.
