pygmt.Figure.colorbar(Q=True) 10^p annotation

Hi,

I am wondering if there is a way to annotate a logarithmic colorbar with annotations in the format 10^x? I have made a logarithmic cpt with

pygmt.makecpt(series = [10,16], 
                  cmap = 'lajolla', log=True, no_bg = True)

and then I plot a colour scale with

fig.colorbar(Q = True, frame = 'a1')

The resulting colorbar looks like this, with annotations that are not really user-friendly. It would be nicer if it were 10^10, 10^11 etc (perhaps even including superscripts!).

Am I missing a gmt.conf option or a frame (-B) option to change this format?

Output of pygmt.show_versions() for reference:
