I, Chief
Executive Officer of Gulf Resources, Inc. (the Company), certify that:

1.
  I have reviewed this quarterly report on Form 10-QSB of the Company;

2.
  Based on my knowledge, this 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      report;

3.
  Based on my knowledge, the financial statements, and other financial      information
included in this 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 report;

4.
  The registrants other certifying officer(s) 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)) for the registrant and 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 report is being      prepared;

b.
  [intentionally omitted per SEC Release 33-8238];

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 effect, the registrants
internal control over financial      reporting; and

5.
  The registrants other certifying officer(s) 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 functions):

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.
