We have designed a miniature ceramic anvil high pressure cell (mCAC) for magnetic measurements at pressures up to 12.6 GPa in a commercial superconducting quantum interference (SQUID) magnetometer. In this conference, we will shows details of the mCAC and our recent modifications in the cell. Also, we will show results of high pressure magnetic measurements on rare earth compound YbCuSi. We find that the pressure-induced phase has strong uniaxial anisotropy.
