The "Gold Mine problem" states that you are given a 2D grid having some non-negative coins placed in each cell of the given grid. Initially, the miner is standing at the first column but there is no restriction on the row. He can start in any row. The miner can move only in the right direction to the just next column.
Once upon a time, Japan was known in the Western world as the "land of gold." Gold mining in Japan actually dates back to at least the 8th century, and the country produced about 20% of the world's gold output in the mid-17th century. The Sado Island Gold Mines, in particular, were central to Japanese gold production for many years.

Gold ore is a rare mineral block found underground. Deepslate gold ore is a variant of gold ore that can generate in deepslate and tuff. Gold ore drops as raw gold if mined by an iron pickaxe or higher. If mined by any other tool, it drops nothing. Mining with a Silk Touch pickaxe drops itself. It is affected by Fortune enchantment, dropping 1–2, 1–3, or 1–4 raw …
