Cenko (Caltech),\nreport on behalf of a larger collaboration: \n\n\"Starting on 2008 April 13.41 UT we observed GRB 080413B (Stamatikos\net al. GCN 7598) with the GMOS spectrograph on the Gemini South\ntelescope.  We obtained a single 900-sec spectrum in the wavelength\nrange 3900-6700A.  The resolution of our spectrum is 5 Ang/pixel (R ~\n1100 at 5900A).  We clearly observe several metal absorption features\ncorresponding to the MgII doublet (2796,2803 A), MgI (2853A), FeII\n(2586A and 2600A), and FeI (3021A). These identifications are\nconsistent with a host galaxy redshift of z = 1.10, confirming the\nresult reported from VLT observations by Vreeswijk et al.(GCN 7601).\"",
