Golden Pickaxe

A golden pickaxe is a tool crafted from sticks and gold ingots, making it the fastest but least durable pickaxe in Minecraft. Despite its high mining speed, it has extremely low durability, breaking after just 32 uses. A golden pickaxe can mine stone and ores like coal and iron, but it cannot mine valuable resources such as diamonds or redstone. Due to its inefficiency, it is rarely used for practical mining but can be enchanted more effectively than other pickaxes. It can also be smelted into a gold nugget using a furnace or blast furnace.
