The deposits we see on earth were created via nuclear fusion combining lighter elements in the cores of dying stars during the end of life inward collapse and then those new heavier elements were spread in the dust clouds after the stars explode and dissipate.

Human have created gold in science conditions but it costs a fortune and produces tiny amounts per day with no predictable improvement to costs or yield so we don’t bother compared to just mining the deposits on earth.
