I was thinking. When mining why not if you have others in your group with the mining skill give bonuses to everyone. I mean mining is time consuming and hard to do..plus tedious. If you have others in your group who mine it would be like aiding each other extract ore and give bonuses to one another. Plus its an incentive to get more miners to gether and go on expeditions to find ore etc..?

Actually...couldn't this sort of synergy be applicable to pretty much any trade (And maybe even skills like brewing, handle animal, scribe, mount, or any others where you could be working with another using the same skill)? Maybe trades like appraise would be a stretch, though you could still pick up tips from others who knew how to value items, but with most trades, working with another probably would help you learn more quickly. Besides, such a bonus could be like the group exp bonus for training and would hopefully encourage group rp.
