A nonrenewable resource is one where when you use it up it is gone forever. We cannot make more gold so it is in that category. Gold is however recyclable, this means it can be used over and over again.

Gold is an element. An element cannot be created chemically from other things, nor can it be grown biologically. There is a finite amount of gold on the Earth, which has not changed from the time the planet was formed. While gold is not renewable, it is recyclable. Gold is routinely recovered from jewelry and electronics, refined and formed into new products.
