An association between the tenants in common of a mine, who work it together, and divide the profits in proportion to their several interests. 1 Mont. 224; 23 Cal. 198. It has been said not to be a true partnership, but rather a cross between a tenancy in common and a partnership proper (Bates, Partn. § 14. And see 35 Cal. 365), for the reason that it has no delectus personarum. 102 U. S. 641; 52 Cal. 540.
