Goron Iron is a precious metal, which can be used by a particularly skilled Blacksmith to forge a weapon, shield, set of armor, or other applicable item. Unlike some materials, Goron Iron has no effect on its own, and appears only as a dark chunk of metal. It only becomes extremely durable after it has been used to craft an object.
An item crafted with Goron Iron is completely impervious to heat, cold, or other elements, and cannot even be broken by a blast as powerful as a Powder Keg. It does transmit electricity like other metals, but is not damaged by it directly. Despite these benefits, Goron Iron is extremely heavy, being approximately thrice the weight of steel. Its virtually-indestructible nature makes it impossible to sharpen, leaving any weapon made from it dull. If Goron Iron cannot be crafted in tandem with another material. Note that unlike other materials which offer protection, such as Dodongo Hide or Gratitude Crystals, Goron Iron imposes no magical protection on its wearer. It is quite possible that an effect could obliterate someone inside a suit of armor of Goron Iron, but leave the suit itself perfectly intact.
Trivia
- Note that an object made Goron Iron is not completely indestructible, but is virtually impossible to break without a treasure which is specifically capable of damaging it. For example, a fully-charged Shield Breaker is capable of piercing it.
- Cheval Rope, another material, has a similar property of being virtually indestructible.
- The Goron Iron (material) treasure canonically appears in the Zelda series, initially in Phantom Hourglass. More information about the canonical version of this treasure can likely be found on Zelda Wiki.
