In related information, the Tonopah Mining Company of Nevada constructed a railroad in 1903 from Rhodes, Nevada, to Tonopah, a 60 mile distance. In 1905, this railroad merged with the Goldfield Railroad Company, which had built a railroad in 1904. The railroad of the consolidated company, known as the Tonopah and Goldfield Railroad Company, transported ore from the Tonopah district to the connecting point of the Southern Pacific Railroad at Mina, Nevada, and carried supplies to the mining operations. In October 1942, The Tonopah Mining Company of Nevada sold its controlling interest in the railroad company to Dulien Steel Products, Incorporated. In September 1946, the Tonopah and Goldfield Railroad filed for abandonment of the road and discontinued hauling ore after October 1. The Tonopah Mining Company of Nevada connecting with the Southern Pacific Railroad for ore shipments had used this railroad. Due to the railroad shutdown, arrangements were made with the Kennecott Copper Corporation at McGill, Nevada, for ore treatment.

Normally, they are never repaid, and the investor can recover his/her money only by selling to another investor. Most stocks, or also called shares, earn dividends, at the business's discretion, depending on how well it has traded. A stockholder or shareholder is a part-owner of the business that issued the stock certificates.
