As of at least a year ago, their are bindings for the BLAS library of your choice (github.com/gonum/blas), which are used in many parts of the matrix package (github.com/gonum/matrix/mat64). As of a week ago, there are bindings for the Lapack implementation of your choice (github.com/gonum/lapack). These have not yet been worked in with matrix, but will be eventually (PR welcome!).

Not to mention there's 2/3rds of a go BLAS implementation (benchmarks https://groups.google.com/forum/#!msg/gonum-dev/Cqa41tbUUCw/...). Level 3 routines are much harder to make efficient (people are still researching efficient matrix multiply)
