Exhibit 31.1

                                CERTIFICATION

   I, Mike Wood, Chief Executive Officer and Acting Principal Financial
Officer certify that:

1.  I have reviewed this quarterly report on Form 10-Q of Raven Gold Corp;

2.  Based on my knowledge, this quarterly report does not contain any untrue
    statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary to
    make the statements made, in light of the circumstances under which such
    statements were made, not misleading with respect to the period covered by
    this quarterly report;

3.  Based on my knowledge, the consolidated financial statements, and other
    financial information included in this quarterly report, fairly present in
    all material respects the financial condition, results of operations and
    cash flows of the registrant as of, and for, the periods presented in this
    quarterly report;

4.  The registrant's other certifying officers and I are responsible for
    establishing and maintaining disclosure controls and procedures (as
    defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)) and internal
    control over financial reporting (as defined in Exchange Act Rules
    13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f)) for the registrant and we have:

    (a) designed such disclosure controls and procedures, or caused such
        disclosure controls and procedures to be designed under our
        supervision, to ensure that material information relating to the
        registrant, including its consolidated subsidiaries, is made known to
        us by others within those entities, particularly during the period in
        which this quarterly report is being prepared;

    (b) designed such internal control over financial reporting, or caused such
        internal control over financial reporting to be designed under our
        supervision, to provide reasonable assurance regarding the
        reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial
        statements for external purposes in accordance with generally
        accepted accounting principles;

    (c) evaluated the effectiveness of the registrant's disclosure controls
        and procedures and presented in this report our conclusions about the
        effectiveness of the disclosure controls and procedures, as of the
        end of the period covered by this report based on such evaluation; and

    (d) disclosed in this report any change in the registrant's internal
        control over financial reporting that occurred during the
        registrant's most recent fiscal quarter (the registrant's fourth
        fiscal quarter in the case of an annual report) that has materially
        affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the
        registrant's internal control over financial reporting; and

5.  The registrant's other certifying officers and I have disclosed, based
    on our most recent evaluation of internal control over financial
    reporting, to the registrant's auditors and the audit committee of
    registrant's board of directors (or persons performing the equivalent
    function):

    (a) all significant deficiencies and material weaknesses in the design or
        operation of internal control over financial reporting which are
        reasonably likely to adversely affect the registrant's ability to
        record, process, summarize and report financial information; and

    (b) any fraud, whether or not material, that involves management or other
        employees who have a significant role in the registrant's internal
        control over financial reporting.

                                         RAVEN GOLD CORP.
