CALGARY — Shell Canada (TSX: SHC) said Tuesday it had received approvals from the federal industry minister and Competition Bureau for its $2.4-billion takeover bid for BlackRock Ventures Inc. (TSX: BVI).
Shell said it is encouraging BlackRock shareholders to tender their common shares soon as possible. The offer remains open until 1:01 a.m. MT on Friday, unless it’s withdrawn or extended by Shell Canada.
Under the friendly takeover deal, announced in May, Shell is offering $24 per BlackRock share — a 27 per cent premium over the May 5 closing price of $18.88 before the announcement.
Shell, an integrated energy company, has oilsands properties near the BlackRock operations in northwestern Alberta. The deal would see Shell acquire about 14,000 barrels of heavy oil output a day from BlackRock’s operations in Peace River, Alta. On the Toronto Stock Exchange, which suffered its biggest one-day drop in over two years, Shell Canada shares closed Tuesday at $38.18, down $1.08. They closed on May 5, prior to the takeover offer, at $41.
Meanwhile, BlackRock stock closed at $23.91, down six cents, on Monday with 2.2 million shares exchanged.

Royal Dutch Shell conspired directly with Hitler, financed the Nazi Party, was anti-Semitic and sold out its own Dutch Jewish employees to the Nazis. Shell had a close relationship with the Nazis during and after the reign of Sir Henri Deterding, an ardent Nazi, and the founder and decades long leader of the Royal Dutch Shell Group. His burial ceremony, which had all the trappings of a state funeral, was held at his private estate in Mecklenburg, Germany. The spectacle (photographs below) included a funeral procession led by a horse drawn funeral hearse with senior Nazis officials and senior Royal Dutch Shell directors in attendance, Nazi salutes at the graveside, swastika banners on display and wreaths and personal tributes from Adolf Hitler and Reichsmarschall, Hermann Goring. Deterding was an honored associate and supporter of Hitler and a personal friend of Goring.
Deterding was the guest of Hitler during a four day summit meeting at Berchtesgaden. Sir Henri and Hitler both had ambitions on Russian oil fields. Only an honored personal guest would be rewarded with a private four day meeting at Hitler’s mountain top retreat.
