Abstract

A silver halide photographic material comprises at least one light-sensitive emulsion layer containing a silver halide emulsion on a support. The light-sensitive emulsion layer comprises (a) a silver halide emulsion containing silver halide grains having a silver chloride content of 90 mol % or more, in some cases 95 mol % or more, and (b) at least one compound represented by formula (I), (II) or (III): ##STR1## in which the variables are as defined in the specification. In some embodiments of the invention, the silver halide emulsion (a) may be sensitized with a selenium, gold or iridium compound. Also, in some embodiments of the invention, the silver halide grains are substantially iodide-free and have a localized phase with a silver bromide content of 10% or more in the vicinity of the grain surface.
