the point is that it's a renewable source of gold. Every time it rains pools will spawn. You go there and pan for gold dust. I got 7 in a small area (2, 2, and 3 from a bigger pool). You can drop the gold dust on the ground individually or in stacks, which will get eaten one at a time (not wasted)...the pangolden will walk over to the gold dust like a rabbit to a carrot, eat it then walk away. If there's more dust it'll return and eat another, and repeat. Once it's eaten enough, it will poop out a gold nugget. The worst part is finding the pangolden (which should be in the area anyway), and the time it takes for it to eat and eventually poop, but that's not bad considering the time it would take to mine 1-2 gold rocks that won't respawn. Basically, if it rains, go pan for some more gold dust.
