Neither. Gold is an element.

Most gold jewelry, though, is made from an alloy of gold and copper. Alloy is just another word for mixture, I guess. 24K gold is pure gold, 12K gold is half gold half copper, etc. Gold is a very soft metal, and adding copper makes is stronger.

Gold is actually non of those, Its an element all on its own. It's really unreactive to things like air etc. So it lasts a long time perfect for jewelry!
