How to get Gold Ore in Once Human

Once Human has a ton of different resources to find, but the most rare can be the most difficult to come across. Gold Ore is one of these types, and you can only get it in specific areas of the map.

Gold Ore is necessary if you want to craft more advanced gear or make some money. Either way, it becomes a vital resource especially once you hit the later stages of the game. So, here is where you can get it and what you can do with it. 

Where to find Gold Ore in Once Human

You can find Gold Ore deposits which you can mine in Lone Wolf Wastes, Red Sands, Chalk Peak, and The Iron Ridge. You can also buy Gold from other players if you wish, but the cost may vary depending on the situation. 

Lone Wolf Wastes is the best area to look for Gold Ore, but it’s a level 50 area, so you need to be prepared before you explore it. Like most other areas, clumps of Gold Ore are scattered across the location, so you’ll need to do some searching – but you shouldn’t have to look for too long.

If you’re mining, you’ll be looking for a smoother mineral sticking out of the ground and shining brightly like you’d expect gold to. To mine it, you need to make sure that you have a Tungsten Pickaxe.

2. Navigate to Infrastructure and unlock the Tungsten Alloy Pickaxes.
3. Enter your Supplies Workbench.
4. Craft a Tungsten Alloy Pickaxe.
5. Go into your inventory and move the Tungsten Alloy Pickaxes into your hotbar.

To find Tungsten Ore, you need to have unlocked all regions of the map first, then you can start finding Tungsten Ore deposits. Once you’ve followed these steps, you’ll have unlocked a Tungsten Pickaxe and you’ll be able to mine Gold Ore in Once Human.

What is Gold Ore used for in Once Human?

You can use Gold Ore to smelt it into Gold Ingots and upgrade your gear or get rich quickly in Once Human. You can sell your stuff with traders like the one you find in Meyer’s Market to make money.

Keep in mind that Gold is meant to be a late-game resource, so you might have to upgrade your gear before you go into the areas you need to find the Ore.

Building your base in the right location can also help locate rare resources like Gold Ore easier, but keep in mind that there are also some codes available that can help you with items like Adrenaline Shots and food to make exploration easier.
