We observed the field of GRB241030A (at a redshift of z=1.41) (Fermi GBM Team, GCN 37955,

al., GCN38040) using the T193cm telescope at Observatoire de Haute-Provence (France) equipped
with the MISTRAL spectro-imager. A total of 70 min of exposure (7x600s) were obtained in the
r-band starting at 03:46:29 UT on 2024-11-02 (~2.9 days after the trigger).
The optical counterpart is clearly detected on the stacked images, with the following
preliminar magnitude: r = 21.9 +/- 0.1 mag (AB)
The photometric calibration was performed using nearby stars from the PanSTARRS catalog and
the magnitude is not corrected for Galactic extinction.
We acknowledge the excellent support from Observatoire de Haute-Provence and in particular
Stephane Favard for the MISTRAL observations.
