Elements are constantly forming and decaying on earth. But not gold. Even the nuclear fusion occuring within our Sun cannot synthesize gold. The gold on Earth formed in supernovae and neutron star collisions that occurred before the solar system formed.

Technically speaking EVERYTHING comes from the heavens. Afterall we're all floating around in space on a giant rock.
