Blast Furnaces in Minecraft offer faster smelting of ores ... It is a specialized block. A Blast Furnace can smelt gold, ores, iron, and metal tools twice as much as any regular furnace.

At the crafting table interface, place a block of cobblestone along the sides of the 3x3 slots, leaving space in the middle square. This will give you a furnace that you can drag into your inventory.
