No, it does not contain gold. Hemoglobin is an organic polymer and globular protein consisting of carbon, hydrogen, nitrogen, oxygen, and sulfur with an iron core. When discussing molecules that are organic, they are typically composed of some combination of the elements sulfur, phosphorous, oxygen, nitrogen, carbon, and hydrogen.

In college chem, we always learned to remember this with the word "SPONCH".
