I'd suggest using mpz_ui_pow_ui (), and reading the manual.

The folowing example compiles and runs smoothly for me.

#include <gmp.h>

void main () {
  mpz_t power;
  unsigned int base, exponent;

  base = 1000;
  exponent = 10;

  mpz_init (power);
  mpz_ui_pow_ui (power, base, exponent);
  gmp_printf ("%u ^ %u = %Zd\n", base, exponent, power);
}

I hope this helped,
m
