May 24 (Reuters) – BlackRock’s Global Resources team

increased its Chesapeake Energy Corp stake to 4 million

shares from under 1 million shares, a source familiar with the

situation said on Thursday.

While the group raised its exposure, executives within the

team said Chesapeake’s management issues are still a

“distraction,” the source said.

BlackRock’s Global Resources team oversees over $5 billion

in assets, as of March 30.

A BlackRock representative declined to comment.
