A golden pickaxe is a variant of pickaxe that is crafted from gold ingots. It is the sixth-highest tier of pickaxe, having the lowest durability, and having the lowest attack damage alongside wooden pickaxes, despite having the highest mining efficiency. It has a mining level of 0, the same as a wooden pickaxe, allowing it to mine stone and coal ore. It can be admired by piglins, and has the highest enchantability.

A golden pickaxe is used to break stone and metal-based materials faster. Breaking a block with a golden pickaxe consumes one use (one durability point). No durability is consumed for blocks that have a hardness value of 0, such as torches and flowers.
All pickaxes have an attack speed modifier of -2.8, meaning they take about 0.85 seconds to recover. Golden pickaxes do 2HPπ β€οΈ
damage per attack, or 2.4 damage per second, the same as a wooden pickaxe.
All pickaxes attack instantly, with golden pickaxes doing 3HPπ β€οΈ
π π
damage per attack, the same as a wooden pickaxe.
A golden pickaxe can be repaired in an anvil by adding gold ingots, with each ingot restoring 25% of the pickaxe's maximum durability, rounded down. Two golden pickaxes can also be combined in an anvil. Both methods preserve the pickaxe's enchantments.
A golden pickaxe can receive the following enchantments:

Piglins are attracted to golden pickaxes. They run toward any golden pickaxes on the ground and inspect them for 6 to 8 seconds before putting them in their inventory.
