An apparatus for cement blending includes a pressure vessel for containing a slurry and an agitating member which mixes the slurry within the pressure vessel. The pressure vessel includes a first inlet for connection to a source of pressurized driving fluid and a first outlet through which the slurry can be discharged when the pressure vessel is pressurized by the driving fluid. The apparatus is capable of blending a thick slurry of water and cement. A vibrating mechanism vibrates the vessel to facilitate mixing of the slurry and discharge of the slurry from the vessel by the driving fluid.

[ What is claimed is:] [1.] An apparatus for mixing and discharging a slurry of water and cement comprising:a pressure vessel adapted to contain slurry and including a first inlet connected to a source of pressurized driving fluid and a first outlet for discharge of the slurry upon pressurization of the vessel by the driving fluid;an agitating mechanism disposed to mix the slurry within the pressurized vessel and including an impeller disposed within the vessel such that rotation of the impeller causes the slurry initially to flow downwardly from the impeller to be redirected outwardly and upwardly in a circulatory mixing action; anda vibrating mechanism for vibrating the vessel to facilitate mixing of the slurry and discharge of the slurry from the vessel by the driving fluid.
