A silver halide photographic material having at least one light-sensitive emulsion layer containing surface latent image type silver halide grains on a support, wherein the emulsion layer contains a silver halide emulsion, in an amount of 50% by weight or more, which is a substantially silver iodide-free silver chlorobromide comprising silver chloride in an amount of 70 mol % or more (as a mean value) of the total silver halide constituting the silver halide grains, which has a silver bromide-localized phase with a silver bromide content of less than 70 mol % in the inside or on the surface of the grains, and which further contains ions on in the grains. |
