POWER OF ATTORNEY

I hereby confirm that I have authorized and designated each of Ernesto Bautista
III, John R. Bakht and Christopher Powell to execute and file on my behalf all
SEC Section 16 forms (including any amendments thereto) that I may be required
to file with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission as a result of
my position with, or my ownership of or transactions in securities of, CARBO
Ceramics Inc. (the "Company"). The authority of such individual under this
Statement shall continue for as long as I am required to file such forms, unless
earlier terminated by my delivery of a written revocation of this authorization
to the Company. I hereby acknowledge that such individual is not assuming, nor
is the Company assuming, any of my responsibilities to comply with Section 16 of
the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.
