Abstract

A method for producing a silver halide photographic emulsion comprises a step of spectrally sensitizing a silver halide photographic emulsion material that contains tabular silver halide grains having an aspect ratio of 3 or more in an amount of 50% or more of the total projected area of all the silver halide grains, and a step of performing the spectral sensitization by the addition of a cyanine dye in an amount of 60% or more of the saturated covering amount of the silver halide grains, and the emulsion is produced in the presence of 400 to 2,500 ppm of calcium ions and/or 50 to 2,500 ppm of magnesium ions.
