A process for processing a black-and-white silver halide photographic light-sensitive material is disclosed, the material comprising a photographic component layer containing a hydrazine compound, and the process comprising the step of exposing the light-sensitive material, and developing the exposed material with developer having a pH of not more than 10.7, the developer being prepared from a solid developing composition and the developer being replenished with developer replenisher in an amount of not more than 250 cc per m.sup.2 of the light-sensitive material to be developed.

Method for processing black-and-white silver halide photographic

A method for processing a first black-and-white silver halide photographic light-sensitive material comprising a hydrazine compound and a second black-and-white silver halide photographic light-sensitive material comprising a tetrazolium compound is disclosed, a photographic layer on the side of a silver halide emulsion layer of each material containing gelatin in an amount of not more than 3.0 g per m.sup.2 of the material, and the process comprising the step of exposing the light-sensitive materials and developing the exposed materials with the same developer having a pH of from 9.5 to 10.7, the developer being replenished with developer replenisher in an amount of not more than 250 cc per m.sup.2 of the light-sensitive materials to be developed.

A method of processing a light-sensitive silver halide photographic material is disclosed. The method comprises a processing steps of developing, fixing and a washing or stabilizing, wherein a replenishing solution for the washing or the stabilizing step is an amount of not more than 3 liters per square meter of the light-sensitive material. The photographic material comprises a support, and a hydrophilic colloidal layer on each of the both side of the support, wherein either one of the hydrophilic colloidal layers contains a dye represented by a specific chemical formula.

Method for processing a dye containing silver halide photographic

A process for producing a silver halide photographic material that has at least one silver halide emulsion layer on a support, in which process at least 10 mg of a calcium salt per mole of silver halide is added during the period from the completion of physical ripening a silver halide emulsion to the completion of its chemical ripening together with at least one compound represented by the following general formula (I) and at least one compound represented by the following general formula (II): ##STR1## where R.sub.1 is a hydrogen atom or an alkyl group; R.sub.2 and R.sub.3 which may be the same or different are each a substituted or unsubstituted alkyl group; A.sub.1 -A.sub.6 are each a hydrogen atom, an alkyl group, an alkoxy group, a halogen atom or a phenyl group, provided that adjacent atoms or groups may combine to form a ring; X is an anion; and n is 0 or 1, provided that n =0 when an intramolecular salt is formed; ##STR2## wherein Z.sub.1 is the group of non-metallic atoms necessary to form a 5- or 6-membered hetero ring; Q is the group of non-metallic atoms necessary to form a 5-membered nitrogenous hetero ring; R.sub.4 is an alkyl group of a substituted alkyl group; and m is 1 or 2.
