Compositions and methods involving polyvalent cation reactive polymers for use as lost circulation materials in subterranean treatment operations are provided. In some embodiments, the methods include forming a treatment fluid including a base fluid, a source of a polyvalent cation, a polyvalent cation reactive polymer, and an acid precursor; introducing the treatment fluid into a wellbore penetrating at least a portion of a subterranean formation; and allowing the treatment fluid to at least partially set. |
