Item 3.01: Notice of Delisting or Failure to Satisfy a Continued

Listing Rule or Standard; Transfer of Listing.

Extension of Time to Regain Compliance with Nasdaq Listing Rule

5250(c)(1)

On June 25, 2026, Gulf Resources

(the “Company”) received a written notice from Nasdaq (the

Extension Letter”) stating that it had accepted the Company’s plan to regain compliance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5250(c)(1)

(the “Rule”). Nasdaq granted the Company a plan period to regain compliance with the Rule. Unless otherwise defined herein,

capitalized terms used in this current report on Form 8-K have the meanings given to them in the Previous Announcements (as defined below).

As previously reported in

the current report on Forms 8-K (the “Previous Announcements”) filed on April 27, 2026 and May 29, 2026 with the Securities

Exchange Commission by the Company, the Company announced that it received delinquency notifications from Nasdaq on April 23, 2026 and

May 26, 2026 (the “Deficiency Letters”), due to the Company’s non-compliance with the Rule as a result of the Company’s

failure to timely file its annual report on Form 10-K (the “Form 10-K”) for the period ended December 31, 2025 and its quarterly

report on Form 10-Q for the period ended March 31, 2026 (the “Form 10-Q” and together with the “Form 10-K”, the

“Delinquent Reports”), respectively. As of the date of this Form 8-K, the Company remains delinquent in filing its Delinquent

Reports.

The Company

submitted a plan to the Nasdaq Listing Qualification (the “Staff”) to regain compliance (the “Compliance Plan”)

with the Nasdaq Requirements on June 17, 2026. Under the Extension Letter, the Company is required to file its delinquent Form 10-K and

Form 10-Q by the applicable extended deadline to evidence compliance with the relevant Nasdaq requirements.The Extension Letter further

provides that if the Company fails to evidence compliance upon filing the Delinquent Reports, Staff will notify the Company that its securities

will be subject to delisting.

The previously received Deficiency

Letters and the Extension Letter have no immediate effect on the listing or trading of the Company’s common stock on Nasdaq, subject

to the Company’s continued compliance with the other applicable listing requirements.

The Company is committed

to taking the actions set forth in the plan and intends to use all reasonable efforts to regain compliance with the initiatives and conditions

set forth in the Compliance Plan within the plan period. However, there is no assurance that the Company will be successful in regaining

compliance with the Nasdaq Requirements within the planned period.

Cautionary Note Regarding Forward Looking Statements

This Current Report on Form 8-K includes information

that constitutes forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E

of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Words such as “anticipate”, “estimate”, “expect”,

“project”, “plan”, “intend”, “believe”, “may”, “might”, “will”,

“should”, “care have”, “likely” and similar expressions are used to identify forward-looking statements.

These forward-looking statements are based on the Company’s current beliefs, assumptions and expectations regarding future events,

which in turn are based on information currently available to the Company. By their nature, forward-looking statements address matters

that are subject to risks and uncertainties. A variety of factors could cause actual events and results to differ materially from those

expressed in or contemplated by the forward- looking statements. These factors include, without limitation, the Company’s ability

to respond in a timely and satisfactory matter to the inquiries by Nasdaq, the Company’s ability to become current with its reports

with the SEC, and the risk that the completion and filing of the Form 10-K will take longer than expected. For additional information

about factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those described in the forward-looking statements, please refer

to the Company’s filings with the SEC, including the risk factors contained in its most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K and the

Company’s other subsequent filings with the SEC. The Company undertakes no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking

statement, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except to the extent required by applicable laws.
