It says: "Dr. Barsoum and his co-workers analyzed the mineralogy of samples from several parts of the Khufu pyramid, and said they found mineral ratios that do not exist in any of the known limestone sources. From the geochemical mix of lime, sand and clay, they concluded, 'the simplest explanation' is that it was cast concrete." He has some support too: "David Walker, a Columbia geologist who has read the report, said that the microscopic examination of the blocks 'certainly revealed things you wouldn't expect to find in normal limestone.'" We will have to wait and see! It’s in the linked article Robin.
