GOPATH is a list <https://golang.org/cmd/go/#hdr-GOPATH_environment_variable>, though it usually only contains one element. The first element in the list is the leftmost one (e.g., GOPATH=first:second:last).
GOROOT holds the standard library, so those packages must be findable. The standard library is distributed as source.
