Silver halide color photographic light-sensitive material

A silver halide color photographic light-sensitive material comprising a support having provided thereon light-sensitive silver halide emulsion layers, wherein on the outside of the light-sensitive silver halide emulsion layer positioned farthest from the support, a protective emulsion layer containing silver halide fine grains of 0.2.mu. or less in average grain size which are not substantially developable by development processing of the silver halide color photographic light-sensitive material and which are less sensitive than the light sensitive silver halide grains in said light sensitive silver halide emulsion layers by 0.5 or more in terms of log units is provided, and in the silver halide color photographic light-sensitive material at least one compound represented by the following general formula (I) is present in an amount sufficient to depress fog of the silver halide color photographic material after preservation:

• ##STR6## wherein M represents a hydrogen atom, an alkali metal or a quaternary ammonium group, X represents COOM' or SO.sub.3 M', wherein M' represents a hydrogen atom, an alkali metal or a quaternary ammonium group, n represents 1 or 2, R.sub.1 represents a group capable of substituting on the phenyl group, and m represents 0, 1 or 2.
