Silver halide color photographic light-sensitive material and method for forming image

摘要

Disclosed is a novel silver halide color photographic light-sensitive material comprising a support and photographic constituent layers formed thereon, said photographic constituent layers including at least one photographic light-sensitive layer comprising light-sensitive silver halide, said silver halide color photographic light-sensitive material being capable of forming an image thereon after exposure and simple heat development thereof, wherein the light-sensitive material contains a specific compound acting as an anti-fogging agent and wherein at least one silver halide emulsion contained in the light-sensitive material is characterized in that silver halide grains of the emulsion have a silver chloride content of 50 mol % or more, the tabular grains whose principal faces are each made up of a (111) plane account for 50% or more of the total projected area of the silver halide grains of the emulsion, the tabular grains have an average thickness of 0.3 mu m or less, and that the grains have an average aspect ratio of 2 to 80. Further, a method for forming an image by using the above silver halide color photographic light-sensitive material is disclosed.
