His eyes are piercing! But some blacks are a bit too dark.

That's the price emulating emulsions with 9 ƒ DR!

I would note not the blacks but the pasty lower mid-tones.

Forgive my ignorance, but what is emulating emulsions with 9 f DR?

The mid tones needs to be worked well here.

These terms apply to film: an acetate with a light sensitive
B&W émulsion on one side that typically had 9 stops of DR.

I believe Nikon Shooter is referencing the Dynamic Range of most any B&W print shot with Tri-X film.  Most modern digital cameras have around 10-12 stops of DR. DR is measured by measuring the difference between the whitest-white with detail and the blackest-black with detail. Most people new to film printing (wet darkroom) started out printing muddy, low contrast photos. (Similar to your images, but with a lot of dust on them.)  It takes a lot of darkroom time to consistency capture and print photos with good contrast. 

Here's a galley of B&W Tri-X Stuff  from the late 60's and 70's.
There are photographs everywhere. It is the call of photographers to see and capture those images.

Yeah! I get this. But how can we add more contrast to these photos? Like, can we still adjust this using PP?
,

Given that the racial type has special skin colour and tones,
and was captured in the shade, one should explore the ori-
ginal RAW file to see how it could be improved.

Yes, it may be a simple matter of PP but the skin tones could
hide a trap for direct conversion; in which case tweaking one
or more of the six colour channels must come before any at-
tempt playing with contrast or else.

Yes and quite easily in PP or equal. (See Nikon Shooter's response above.)

Right. I see it. Nice advice, Maybe this is due to color noise correction. What do you think?

I think it starts with exposure, as the images appears to be underexposed. Even the whites of the eyes are not white. We don’t know how the B&W conversion was performed.

Yeah. It is indeed underexposed. the black tones are a bit too dark.

Yeah! I noticed that midtones are a bit lacking. The Whites are a bit too shiny.
