That is fairly simple to calculate.
First you need the width and thickness of the material to find the volume. Let's say it is 10 cm wide (W) and 1 mm thick (T). The volume is:

W * T * L = V
0.1 m * 0.001 m * 6 m = 0.0006 m^3

Now that you have the volume you can find the weight by multiplying with the density. The density of gold is 19.3 g*cm^-3=19300 kg*m^-3. If the material is made out of gold the weight would be:

0.0006 m^3 * 19300 kg*m^-3 = 11.58 kg
