Aurum is a neuter noun of the second declension and OBVIOUSLY it has its regular plural declension of cases.
Plural of Aurum is AURA at the nominative, accusative and vocative, AURORUM at the genitive and AURIS at the dative and ablative

Aurum is a second declension noun ending in -um.Plural must be aura. As others have posted plural may not be applicable in this case

Not, it isn't. The previous answer is valid. We do have a plural usage for gold in English - although it is unusual. If you were speaking of, for example, the different types of golds that can be mined from different areas, or the difference between golds that are derived from placer mining and golds that are derived from ore mining, then gold is pluralized.
Bur as the previous responder explained, even if gold were pluralized, aura would not be the correct form.

aurum is a noun. therefore the plural should be the same. if it is a declension noun then you could possibly have aurus but i dont think it applies as we dont have a plural for gold
