But he wouldn't let it bother him. By then, he would have far more important things to do. [[Steel]] was probably the most important commodity that Midas Mulligan had had to import from the outside, through his secret sources. Rearden took that market away from Mulligan, probably to Mulligan's immense relief, by building his own furnace (or furnaces) and pouring Rearden Metal. The raw materials for that were readily available, between Andrew Stockton's iron mine, Ken Danagger's coal mine, and D'Anconia Copper Number One. Rearden, being an impatient man, would have organized his and Francisco's workforces into a joint force to build a truck road from the valley to the copper mine. Both men knew that Francisco needed to transport his copper ore by rail, not on muleback or even by truck. But they would have to wait until Dagny Taggart finally made up her mind to quit and join them in the valley, for only she knew how to build a railroad along the ledges of the truck route at a non-prohibitive cost.

Rearden took that market away from Mulligan, probably to Mulligan's immense relief, by building his own furnace (or furnaces) and pouring Rearden Metal. The raw materials for that were readily available, given the richness of resources of the surrounding mountains. D'Anconia Copper Number One was, of course, the key supplier of [[copper]].
