PROXY STATEMENT SUPPLEMENT
ANNUAL MEETING OF STOCKHOLDERS
July 10, 2002

This proxy statement supplement should be read together with the proxy statement for the Annual Meeting of Stockholders of The Goldfield Corporation (the "Company") to be held on July 10, 2002, which was mailed to the Company's stockholders on or about May 31, 2002.  This proxy statement supplement revises certain information related to the election of directors and is being mailed to stockholders on or about June 12, 2002. 

ELECTION OF DIRECTORS

Each stockholder entitled to vote at the meeting has the right to vote his shares cumulatively for the election of directors; that is, each stockholder will be entitled to cast as many votes as there are directors to be elected multiplied by the number of shares of Common Stock registered in his name on the record date, and to cast all such votes for one candidate or to distribute such votes among the nominees for the office of director in accordance with his choice.  A stockholder who wishes to vote by proxy and exercise his cumulative voting rights should advise the Board of Directors in writing how he wishes to have his votes distributed among the nominees for directors.  Such written instructions should accompany the proxy card or cards to which they relate.

The election of directors requires a plurality of the votes cast for the election of directors; accordingly, the seven directorships to be filled at the Annual Meeting will be filled by the seven nominees receiving the seven highest number of votes.  Please note that because there are seven nominees for the seven available directorships, the exercise of cumulative voting by stockholders will have no effect on the outcome of the election.

VOTING AND REVOCATION OF PROXIES

As stated in the proxy statement dated May 31, 2002, holders of record of outstanding shares of the Company at the close of business on May 27, 2002 will be entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting and at any adjournments thereof. 

A new proxy card for use at the Annual Meeting and a return postage-paid envelope are enclosed.  No action in connection with this supplement is required by any stockholder who has previously delivered a proxy for use at the annual meeting and who does not wish to revoke that proxy or change his or her vote.  Any stockholder who wishes to vote on any of the proposals and who has not yet delivered a proxy must return either his or her original proxy card or return the enclosed new proxy card.

You may revoke any proxy returned to us at any time prior to its exercise by duly executing and returning a later dated proxy or by filing a written revocation bearing a later date with the Secretary of the Company.  The proxy will be revoked if you attend the meeting and vote in person.

Dated:
June 12, 2002
