to Temporarily Close Bromine Facilities Until February 10, 2020</B></P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">SHOUGUANG, China, Dec. 12, 2019 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Gulf Resources,
Inc. (Nasdaq: GURE) (&quot;Gulf Resources&quot; or the &quot;Company&quot;), a leading manufacturer of bromine, crude salt and
specialty chemical products in China today announced that it has received a notification from the government of Shouguang City,
pursuant to which all bromine facilities in Shouguang City will be closed until February 10,2020.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">On November 25, 2019, the government of Shuoguang City issued
a notice ordering all bromine facilities in Shouguang City to temporarily stop production from December 16, 2019 to February 10,
2020, while the Company received such notice recently.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">We believe this seasonal closure ordered by the government is
part of governmental action plan to curb air pollution. Our company had intended to commence production in factories #1 and #7,
but we will delay the opening of the production until February 10, 2020 in light of the governmental order.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">We don&rsquo;t anticipate the closure of about two months in
winter will significantly impact the Company&rsquo;s business. As we stated in the third quarter earnings conference call, &ldquo;Winter
is a slow seasonal period for bromine production, because of Chinese New Year and given the fact that some crude salt products
cannot be processed during the coldest months.&rdquo; Chinese New Year of 2020 falls on January 25, 2020 and the festival will
last approximately up to two weeks. Under normal circumstances, facilities are closed during the holidays. Once this temporary
closure is over, we intend to open factories #1 and #7 and gear up production steadily.</P>
