Abstract

Abstract A silver halide photographic material comprising a transparent support and at least one silver halide emulsion layer provided on at least one side of said transparent support, said at least one silver halide emulsion layer comprising silver halide grains, wherein at least 50% of the total projected area of said silver halide grains accounts for silver chloride-containing tabular grains having a silver chloride content of 20 mol % or more, and the tabular grains have an average aspect ratio of 2 or more, and the silver halide photographic material contains at least one compound represented by formula [I] or (A): ##STR1## The photographic material can reduce pollution caused by developing solutions and fixing solutions, and reduce the replenishment rate thereof.
