As with any probate estate, it would depend on any number of other issues, including the actual words of the grant of ownership (jointly, in common), then (assuming common ownership) whether there was a valid will of the other party and what the will says about property rights, and if no will, then where the person was domiciled when he or she died and what their laws of intestacy have to say, and if any heirs can be found, and if you can negotiate with the heirs, and so forth.
If, for example, you were named on a deed as "A and B", and B dies, then B's share passes to his or her heirs, whoever they are. If there is a will that gives the rights to A, then obviously A now has all the mineral rights, which would be exactly the same as if the deed had said "A and B as joint tenants with right of survivorship," although the estate tax issues may be different.
