When I finally get around to creating Anya's lightsaber, I wanted to give it a gold blade. I have looked through the crystals on Wookieepedia but have been unable to figure out the crystal that would give such a color. Two of the crystals I plan to use in its construction is the Rubat crystal which sharpens the appearance and definition of the blade, allowing its wielder to easily track the blade and strike opponents properly and a Velmorite crystal which creates a fine, thin blade for graceful, fluid wielding. The third crystal is unknown leaving it for the needed crystal to turn it gold. If either of these two can provide the color, the third crystal will become a simple matter of choice for me.
I like having good detail for the things my character gains and I want to do it right. Every crystal will be sought out by planet (seeing as the planets for the current two are not on the site, I'll do the collection stage in the JotW.) If any can help me sort of this snag, I'd greatly appreciate it. Also thinking about it, though she's a child, she won't be directly involved as a Jedi, so the concept of electrum does not hold the meaning to her so much as designing it to her liking. Where could I get the electrum needed for the hilt?

Greetings and salutations, Anya.
If there are not any gold coloring crystals, there is always the possibility of creating a Synthetic crystal, though this can be difficult.
As for the electrum, it is a rare element, but in the Wookie it is stated it is mined on several planets, and then names only two. If you want to do this IC, or at least in a JoTW, I would write on a mineral rich planet for the electrum, and then gain access to a geological compressor to create the synthetic crystal, and of course gathering the materials needed for the creation of said crystal.

I had thought of using a Synthetic crystal though I wanted to see if there were any that were natural occurring. Figured it would have been easier than trying to find everything needed IC and find a the furnace or compressor. The gold is mentioned as a color but one of few that doesn't give a crystal that helps generate it. Such a pain at times, but what can you do.
If any others know of such crystals or where the Synthetic crystal can be forged on the boards that's be great. Thanks for the information you have provided Dazbog.

I see no reason why it would not be safe to assume that an Adegan Crystal could not be found that produced a gold blade. To be honest, Velmorite should produce a yellow colour, I would imagine, so you just might need something that would affect the tone of the colour...
