Industry Minister François-Philippe Champagne said the green light comes with "strict" conditions and represents a "much narrower" transaction than Glencore's hostile takeover attempt of Teck last year.The Canadian PressThe Teck Resources logo is seen on a podium before the company's special meeting of shareholders in Vancouver, B.C., Wednesday, April 26, 2023. Ottawa has approved the sale of Teck's steelmaking coal business to Glencore.
The Vancouver-based miner said it expects to receive $9.5 billion from the sale, excluding closing adjustments. The company has four near-term copper projects that it estimates would together cost about $4.7 billion to complete, while it's also working to ramp up production at its roughly $8.7 billion US Quebrada Blanca Phase 2 project in Chile.
The conditions also include ensuring the majority of Elk Valley Resources' directors, and two-thirds of its executives or senior managers, are Canadian for the same duration.

The announced deal also included Japanese company Nippon Steel Corp. acquiring a 20 per cent stake in exchange for its interest in one of Teck's coal operations and US$1.7 billion in cash, while South Korean steelmaker Posco would swap its interest in a pair of Teck's coal operations for a three per cent stake in the overall steelmaking coal operations.
