                        CERTIFICATION OF PERIODIC REPORT

I, Paul H. Metzinger, certify that:

     1.   I  have  reviewed  this  quarterly report on Form 10-QSB of NanoPierce
          Technologies, Inc.;

     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 small business issuer as of, and for, the periods presented in
          this report;

     4.   The  small  business  issuer's  other  certifying  officer  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 small business issuer 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  small  business  issuer, 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.   [Paragraph  omitted  in  accordance  with  SEC  transition
                    instructions contained in SEC Release 34-47986.]
               c.   Evaluated  the  effectiveness of the small business issuer'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 small business
                    issuer's  internal  control  over  financial  reporting that
                    occurred  during  the  small  business  issuer's most recent
                    fiscal  quarter  (the small business issuer's 4th quarter in
                    the  case of an annual report) that has materially affected,
                    or  is  reasonably  likely  to  materially affect, the small
                    business issuer's internal control over financial reporting;
                    and


<PAGE>
     5.   The  small  business  issuer's  other  certifying  officer  and I have
          disclosed,  based  on  our  most recent evaluation of internal control
          over  financial reporting, to the small business issuer's auditors and
          the  audit committee of the small business issuer'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  small  business  issuer'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 small
                    business issuer's internal control over financial reporting.
