On October 05, 2021, Black Mountain Resources and the Tembo Capital Group created a strategic partnership to jointly advance the Lanfranchi nickel sulphide mine in Western Australia. As part of the transaction, Black Mountain sold a 50% ownership interest in Lanfranchi to Tembo Capital.
A 50:50 JV was entered into by Tembo Capital and BMM in 2021, with Tembo taking full ownership of Cherish Metals in 2023.
High-grade nickel sulphide deposits at Lanfranchi occur as ribbon-like shoots at the base of high magnesium komatiite lava flows or channels. The shoots and high-magnesium lava flows occupy channel structures developed in the underlying Lunnon (footwall) basalt. Above the high-magnesium komatiite flows is a thick sequence of progressively less magnesium-rich komatiite flows. Ten channel structures are recognised at Lanfranchi of which six have been mined historically.

The nickel ore is trucked and treated at BHP Billiton Nickel West's Kambalda nickel concentrator under an Ore Tolling and Concentrate Purchase Agreement.
