undersigned's beneficial ownership of securities of Black Stone Minerals, L.P.,
to:
(1)	execute for and on behalf of the undersigned Forms 3, 4 and 5 (including
amendments thereto) in accordance with Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange
Act of 1934 and the rules thereunder;
(2)	do and perform any and all acts for and on behalf of the undersigned that
may be necessary or desirable to complete and execute any such Form 3, 4 or 5,
complete and execute any amendment or amendments thereto, file such Form with
the United States Securities and Exchange Commission and any stock exchange or
similar authority, and provide a copy as required by law or advisable to such
persons as the attorney-in-fact deems appropriate; and
(3)	take any other action of any type whatsoever in connection with the
foregoing that, in the opinion of the attorney-in-fact, may be of benefit to, in
the best interest of, or legally required of the undersigned, it being
understood that the documents executed by the attorney-in-fact on behalf of the
undersigned pursuant to this Power of Attorney shall be in such form and shall
contain such terms and conditions as the attorney-in-fact may approve in the
attorney-in-fact's discretion.

The undersigned hereby grants to each such attorney-in-fact full power and
authority to do and perform any and every act and thing whatsoever requisite,
necessary or proper to be done in the exercise of any of the rights and powers
herein granted, as fully to all intents and purposes as the undersigned might or
could do if personally present, with full power of substitution or revocation,
hereby ratifying and confirming all that the attorney-in-fact, or the
attorney-in-fact's substitute or substitutes, shall lawfully do or cause to be
done by virtue of this power of attorney and the rights and powers herein
granted. The undersigned acknowledges that the foregoing attorneys-in-fact, and
their substitutes, in serving in such capacity at the request of the

The undersigned agrees that each such attorney-in-fact may rely entirely on

undersigned is no longer required to file Forms 3, 4 and 5 with respect to the
undersigned's holdings of and transactions in securities issued by Black Stone
Minerals, L.P., unless earlier revoked by the undersigned in a signed writing
delivered to the foregoing attorneys-in-fact.
