Coeur d’Alene Mines Chicago Bound

Coeur d'Alene Mines Corp. announced this morning that it will move its corporate headquarters to Chicago in the third quarter of 2013. The company, which had been located in downtown Coeur d'Alene since 1985, had disclosed late last December that it was considering the move. Coeur spokeswoman Stefany Bales says about 60 people work in the corporate headquarters, and all of those employees have been offered the opportunity to transfer with the company. Roughly a third of them have opted to move to Chicago. Bales says most of the other employees will continue to work for the company in the Coeur d'Alene office until final separation on Sept. 30/Journal of Business. More here.

Question: Should the company change its name to Chicago Mines?
