Abstract:
1. A color image formation method comprising; cutting a silver halide color photographic material into sheets, the photographic material having on a support photographic constituent layers including at least one blue-sensitive silver halide emulsion layer containing a yellow dye-forming coupler, at least one green-sensitive silver halide emulsion layer containing a magenta dye-forming coupler, at least one red-sensitive silver halide emulsion layer containing a cyan dye-forming coupler and at least one light-insensitive hydrophilic colloid layer; subjecting the photographic material cut into sheets to imagewise exposure; and subjecting the photographic material exposed imagewise to a photographic processing including a color development step, a bleach-fix step and a rinse step, wherein the transport of the photographic material during the photographic processing is performed at a speed of 27.8 mm/sec to 100 mm/sec, the bleach-fix step has a processing time of 1 to 30 seconds and at least one of the silver halide emulsion layers comprises a silver halide emulsion containing at least one compound represented by the following formula (I) and having a silver chloride content of at least 90 mole %; wherein M represents a cation, and R represents an atom having an atomic weight of not more than 100 or a group having a total atomic weight of not more than 100.
