The 2003 Conference on Cement Microscopy will celebrate its 25th anniversary by attempting to bring the event back to its roots. Instead of the heavy dose of technical papers, there will be four panel discussions and workshops during the meeting devoted to problems in the cement plants and concrete industries. The final day of the conference will be comprised of a symposium jointly sponsored by ICMA and Bruker AXS dealing with Quantitative Phase Analysis or specifically the Rietveld Techniques.

The event will be held April 6-10, 2003 at the Omni Richmond Hotel, Richmond, Va. For more information, contact ICMA:
