High-volume fly ash (FA) cement presented a slow setting and lower early compressive strength, restricting the utilization in cemented paste backfill (CPB). The present work investigated the feasibility of using metakaolin with various particle sizes and content to modify the properties of FA cement. Reaction kinetics, rheological properties, setting time, compressive strength, hydration products, and the CPB samples' microstructure were thoroughly studied. The results showed that 5 wt% of super-fine metakaolin (SMK) could strongly promote the binder hydration, leading to the formation of a more compact matrix with higher early compressive strength. The 3 d-compressive strength of the CPB samples was increased by around 216% after replaced by 5 wt% of SMK. Besides, the binder doped with 5 wt% SMK showed better environmental and cost performance.
