 Acquisition expected to add approximately 5,300 tons of potential incremental

LOS ANGELES and SHENZHEN, China, April 10, 2007 /Xinhua-PRNewswire/ -- Gulf
Resources, Inc. (the "Company") (OTC Bulletin Board: GUFR - News) a leading
producer of Bromine and crude salt in China through its wholly-owned subsidiary
Shuoguang City Haoyuan Chemical Company Limited (SCHC), announced today it
signed a definitive agreement to acquire substantially all of the assets of
Shouguang City Qinshuibo Area, a bromine producer located in close proximity to
SCHC for approximately $5.1 million in total consideration.

The assets include a 50-year mineral rights and land lease covering 1,846 acres,
or 7.5 square kilometers of property, with proven reserves of 34,400 of bromine
being serviced by 575 wells. Additional assets to be conveyed with the purchase
include the related production facility, pipelines and other production
equipment, as well as the current buildings and other assets on the property.
The Company executed an asset purchase agreement with Mr. WENBO YU, the sole

The facility is currently producing approximately 3,500 tons of bromine
annually, which equates to $6.5 million in revenues at current market prices.
Gulf Resources will implement a new processing facility and associated pipelines
during 2007. These improvements are budgeted at approximately $1 million and are
expected to initially increase the annual bromine production output to 4,700
tons, ultimately reaching 5,300 tons during 2008. In addition, the Company
estimates the property will yield approximately 125,000 tons of annual crude
salt production, adding $1.3 million in incremental revenue potential.

"The acquisition of Shouguang City Qinshuibo Area is expected to ultimately
increase our overall bromine production capacity by approximately 50 percent, to
over 15,000 tons annually and be accretive to 2007 earnings," stated Ming Yang,
CEO, Gulf Resources, Inc. This acquisition is consistent with our strategic plan
to acquire other local bromine producers and their reserves, while increasing
output by expanding and improving production facilities. We will leverage our
valuable production and distribution licenses, while leveraging economies of
scale and a stronger distribution platform for future margin enhancements. The
fifty year lease has been paid in full and significantly increases our total
bromine reserves and crude salt production capabilities."

Consideration for the asset purchase includes approximately $3 million in cash,
which will be secured by a promissory note and approximately $2 million worth of
restricted Gulf Resources (GUFR) common stock equating to approximately 780,000
