Claim 2
Dependent Claim
163 words
A silver halide photographic light-sensitive material comprising a support bearing a hydrophilic colloidal layer including at least one light sensitive silver halide emulsion layer thereon, wherein at least some of the silver halide grains present in the said silver halide emulsion layer are tabular grains which have an aspect ratio of the grain size to the grain thickness of at least 5, such that the projective areas of said tabular grains represent not less than 50% of the projective areas of all the silver halide grains in said emulsion layer, the time taken for at least one silver halide emulsion layer of a 1 cm x 2 cm portion of said silver halide photographic light-sensitive material in a 1.5% by weight aqueous solution of sodium hydroxide at 50°C to commence to dissolve is at least 45 minutes, and on the side bearing the hydrophilic colloidal layer containing said silver halide emulsion layer, gelatin is present in an amount from 2.00 to 3.20 g/m².
