  1. No

    A star is a balance between the gravity holding it together and the fusion energy trying to blow it apart. As it ages it fuses elements into heavier elements and so on. When it reaches the point where it attempts to fuse iron into a heavier element its fusion can not be sustained and gravity wins. When it collapses in on itself the resulting explosion is a super nova. Therein and ONLY therein can elements heavier than iron be fused. That means that every bit of gold (or any heavy elements) on the planet came from a super nova that happened here at some point in time.

    Small and medium sized stars like ours run out of energy long before they fail. Our sun will swell out almost all the way to earth in a red giant stage as it tries to fuse helium into lithium. At that stage it will fail internally and will also collapse but will not nova. It will cool into a white dwarf.
