J. M. Silverman, C. V. Griffith, M. T. Kandrashoff, and A. V. Filippenko, University of California, Berkeley, report that inspection of a low signal-to-noise ratio CCD spectrum (range 340-1080 nm), obtained on July 19 UT with the 3-m Shane reflector (+ Kast) at Lick Observatory, shows that SN 2010gk (CBET 2382) is likely of type-Ic just after maximum brightness. The supernova shows evidence of being fairly reddened; it has narrow Na I D absorption from the host galaxy at an equivalent width of about 0.3 nm.
