Gulf Resources Inc manufactures and trades bromine and crude salt, and manufactures and sells chemical products used in oil and gas field exploration, oil and gas distribution, oil field drilling, wastewater processing, papermaking chemical agents.

Gulf Resources Inc was incorporated in Delaware on February 28, 1989. The Company, together with its subsidiaries, manufactures and trades bromine and crude salt, and manufactures and sells chemical products used in oil and gas field exploration, oil and gas distribution, oil field drilling, wastewater processing, papermaking chemical agents and inorganic chemicals. Its business operations are conducted in three segments; bromine, crude salt, and chemical products. It manufactures and distributes bromine through its wholly-owned subsidiary, Shouguang City Haoyuan Chemical Company Limited, or SCHC. Bromine (Br2) is a halogen element and it is a red volatile liquid at standard room temperature which has reactivity between chlorine and iodine. Elemental bromine is used to manufacture a variety of bromine compounds used in industry and agriculture. Bromine is also used to form intermediates in organic synthesis, in which it is somewhat preferable over iodine due to its lower cost. Its bromine is commonly used in brominated flame retardants, fumigants, water purification compounds, dyes, medicines and disinfectants. It also produces crude salt, which is produced from the evaporation of the wastewater after its bromine production process. Once the brine is returned to the surface and the bromine is removed, the remaining brine is pumped to on-site containing pools and then exposed to natural sunshine. This causes the water to evaporate from the brine, resulting in salt being left over afterwards. Crude salt is the material in alkali production as well as chlorine alkali production and is widely used in the chemical, food and beverage, and other industries. It produces chemical products through its wholly-owned subsidiary, Shouguang Yuxin Chemical Industry Company Limited. The Company has an in-house sales staff of 8 persons. Its customers send their orders to the Company first. Its in-house sales staff then attempts to satisfy these orders based on its actual production schedules and inventories on hand. The Company's suppliers are Shandong Xinlong Biological Technology Company limited, Shouguang City Rongguang Trading Company Limited and Shandong Xinlong Group Company limited, Shandong Haihua Chlorine & Alkali Colophony Chemicals Company Limited, Shouguang Hongye Trading Company Limited. The Company competes with Shandong Yuyuan Group Company Limited, Shandong Haihua Group Company Limited, Shandong Dadi Salt Chemical Group Company Limited and Shandong Haiwang Chemical Company Limited, Shandong Haiwang Chemical Company Limited, Shandong Haihua Group Company Limited, Shandong Weifang Longwei Industrial Company Limited, Shandong Yuyuan Group Company Limited and Shandong Caiyangzi Saltworks, Beijing Tianqing Chemical Company Limited, Shandong Weifang Shuangxing Pesticides Company Limited, Zibo Dacheng Pesticides Company Limited, Befar Group Company Limited, China Eastar (Group) Chemical Industry Company Limited and Pecome Technologies Lim

Gulf Resources Sees Continuing Strength in Its Bromine Business
March 6, 2017

SHOUGUANG, China, March 06, 2017 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Gulf Resources, Inc. (NASDAQ:GURE) ("Gulf Resources" or the "Company"), a leading manufacturer of bromine, crude salt and specialty chemical products in China, today announced that continuing strength in the price of bromine should lead to significantly improved sales and earnings in bromine business, especially in the first half of 2017. Over the past two years, the price of bromine in China has shown continuing strength. Price of Bromine (USD) per tonne    2014   $2,8862015   $3,1622016 Q1   $3,8412016 Q2   $4,0062016 Q3   $3,5412017 Beginning of March   $4,142 Between 2014 and 2015, the price of bromine increased 9.6%. In the first 9 months of 2016, the price increased by 21.4% from the same period of 2015 and 31.2% for the same period of 2014. Since the end of the third quarter of 2016, the price of bromine has continued to increase. At the beginning of March 2017, it was $4,142. This represents an increase of 17% from the price in the third quarter of 2016. It also represents an increase of 43.5% from the average price in 2014. There is no guarantee that pricing will remain at its current level. However, international pricing is very strong. Domestically, supply is being constrained by restrictions in production, limited licensing of mines and factories, as well as the degradation of some domestic facilities. As a result, we expect the pricing of bromine will continue to remain strong. At these levels, profits in bromine business could have benefit to our bottom line. We will provide our guidance when we release our results later this month. However, at the present time, in the first half of 2017, for which we have good visibility, we expect increases in sales and earnings for bromine business. About Gulf Resources, Inc.
