Equinox Gold (EQX) Sells Versamet Royalties Stake for C$130M

Equinox Gold Corp. (NYSEAMERICAN:EQX) is one of the undervalued stocks to buy according to the Wall Street. On July 6, Equinox Gold announced the sale of 8,713,000 common shares of Versamet Royalties Corporation in a block trade for gross proceeds of C$130 million. This disposition reduces Equinox Gold’s ownership interest in Versamet from approximately 10.7% to 2.7% on an undiluted basis.
