An emission line feature was observed with a centroid energy of 4.7+/-0.2 keV which, if interpreted as K-alpha emission from hydrogen-like iron, corresponds to a redshift of z=0.47. The observed intensity (EW ~2 keV) and duration (tens of hours) of the line give information on the distance, from the burst region, of the emitting material (R>3x10^15 cm) and its mass (M>1.4 solar mass).
