The nature of the observed absorption features in the spectra of gamma-ray bursts of energy epsilon = 30-60 keV is discussed. It is supposed that their formation is connected with photoabsorption near the K-threshold of heavy elements (e.g. Ba, I) thrown out after a nuclear explosion as a result of the fission of superheavy nuclei. An attempt is made to show that the absorption features must be blueshifted (Delta epsilon/epsilon of about u/c = 0.1-0.3), because of the matter expelled from the neutron star.
