A gold pickaxe produces bonuses at slight better than a 5% rate per stroke (about one bonus per 2.5 blocks on average) and may produce variant bonuses when used on blocks other than raw stone. [[Limestone]] has produced [[oil]]. [[Marble]] has produced [[Red Marble|red marble]]. Red marble has produced gold ingots. [[Sandstone]] has produced [[Gold Nugget|gold nuggets]]. There are no reports of [[Lapis Lazuli]] being produced, but using a gold pickaxe on it has produced [[Gold Ingot|gold ingots]] with no reports to date of other bonuses.

Using a gold spade on black sand produced iron ore (8 iron ore, 4 magnets, 4 black glass from 165 black sand). This trial used up almost one and a half gold spades.


Either tool may produce bonuses when used on [[ore]] blocks in addition to the ore, such as [[clay]] or [[flint]] in [[dirt]] or [[coal]] in [[stone]]. The type of bonus seems to depend on the base block, and consists of ten of the ore in question.

Prior to [[Game updates/20130625|release 1.3]], it wasn't unusual for a gold pickaxe used exclusively on raw stone to generate more than five [[Gold Ingot|gold ingots]] before breaking, making it virtually regenerating.
