Well, now, this is a nice surprise. I've been working on
Stereolithography of Ceramics for the past 2+ years. My suspensions are
50vol% Alumina in a photocurable resin. There are two others groups (at
Universities) and one other company doing development in this area (SLA)
Here are a few references:

Hope this helps,
