"The Old Prospector"
A master reciter of classic verse, Jerry Brooks worked underground in the coal mines of Utah for 26 years before taking to the cowboy poetry stage. As the 23rd Annual Mining Expo comes to Elko, we honor friends and family who work in the mining industry with Brooksie's recitation of a lesser-known poem by Charles Badger Clark, "The Old Prospector."
