Method of processing silver halide color photographic materials

A method of processing a silver bromoiodide color photographic material which comprises the steps of color-developing an image-wise exposed silver bromoiodide color photographic material and subjecting the developed material to desilvering in a processing bath having a fixing function and containing a thiosulfate compound and a compound of the following general formula (I) in a molar ratio of 1/0.05 to 1/0.30, and a compound of the following general formula (II):

• wherein R1, R2 and R3 each represent a hydrogen atom or an alkyl group having 1 to 3 carbon atoms, with the proviso that at least one of R1, R2 and R3 is an alkyl group substituted with a water-soluble group selected from the group consisting of a sulfonic acid group and a carboxylic acid group and that both R1 and R3 cannot be a hydrogen atom at the same time, and the total number of carbon atoms in R1, R2 and R3 2 to 6,
• wherein R represents a substituent of benzene ring, n represents an integer of 0 to 6, and M represents a hydrogen atom, alkali metal, alkaline earth metal, ammonium or amine, wherein an amount of the compound of formula (I) is about 0.05 to 0.3 mol/l and an amount of the compound of formula (II) is about 0.01 to 2 mol/l and an amount of thiosulfate compound is 0.3 to 3 mol/l in an aqueous solution of the bath.
