The present invention provides a development apparatus which can operate free from development ghost or bias leak, can form a good image free of defects such as development ghost even if the foregoing negative-working magnetic one-component developer is used and can exhibit an excellent environmental stability of image density even under high temperature and humidity conditions. The magnetic one-component development apparatus according to the present invention comprises a developer carrier provided opposed to an electrostatic latent image retainer. The surface the developer carrier comprises an electrically-conductive resin layer containing as a particulate electrically-conductive material a carbon black and a graphite. The ash content in the graphite is not more than 3.0% by weight. The volume intrinsic resistivity of the electrically-conductive resin layer preferably falls within a range of from 2.0x10-2 to 0.99 OMEGA xcm. As the developer to be supported on the developer carrier there may be used a negatively-chargeable magnetic one-component developer.
