We are excited to announce that Centric Mining Systems has been acquired by Datamine, a wholly owned subsidiary of Vela Software, an operating group of Constellation Software (TSX: CSU).
Centric Mining Systems will continue to be led by founder and CEO Chris Novak, who established the business in 1998. In this time the company has grown from a 1-person start-up to a global company with customers in over 15 countries and established a market presence in 6 continents.
The impressive growth of Centric will be further accelerated by making its solutions available through the Datamine distribution network of 28 offices in 20 countries.

This is a great day for our business, and our people, and we look forward to exploring the synergies that Datamine offer.”
