Possibly atomic bombs existed as early as 1908, and the so called

It is quite possible.

Such is quite impossible.

The damage covered an area of about 800 sq mi and the estimated energy
released was 3 to 30 megatons, which would require a thermonuclear
explosion and rules out a fission explosion.

Ground analysis of the site from shortly after the event and as recently
as 2013 all gives results consistant with a meteor air burst, i.e.
siicate and magnetite spheres and high proportions of nickel relative to
iron.

 
It seems that this was the place where the Russians stored uranium.
 
It is impossible to know that uranium had a critical mass and would
explode in an atomic bomb.
 
It is therefore possible that a fortuitous accident occurred by piling
uranium on uranium.

It is quite impossible to get a fission explosion by simply piling up
uranium. The worst that could possibly happen is that a meltdown would
occur, which would NOT result in a fission explosion. Such would be
similar to the Chernobyl meltdown but would be much less severe as the
Chernobyl event had a steam explosion from the cooling water.
