A
silver halide emulsion containing
silver halide grains with a
silver chloride content of at least 95 mole%, being sensitized with
selenium and gold, and further containing at least two compounds each having a function of oxidizing metallic silver clusters; a
silver halide photographic material containing the same; and a silver
halide photographic material having red-, green, and blue-sensitive silver
halide emulsion layers, wherein one of the
emulsion layers contains a silver
halide emulsion with a
silver chloride content of at least 95 mole%, and the silver halide emulsion contains a
selenium compound and a
metal complex of formula (D1); formula (D1) # [M D1 X D1 n L D1 (6-n) ] m wherein M D1 represents Cr, Mo, Re, Fe, Ru, Os, Co, Rh, Pd, or Pt; X D1 represents a
halogen ion; L D1 represents a ligand other than X D1 ; n represents 3, 4, 5, or 6; and m represents 4-, 3-, 2-, 1-, 0, or 1+.
