Compositions, methods, and workflows for treating a siliceous geologic formation including flowing a treatment composition into the formation, wherein the treatment composition has a pH of about −1.0 to about 6.0 and includes an acid having molecular weight less than about 200 or an ammonium or sodium salt thereof, an HF source, and a precipitation prevention agent, and a transient modifier, and allowing the transient modifier to modify the permeability of the siliceous formation. The precipitation prevention agent may comprise a chelant or a scale inhibitor. The transient modifier may comprise surfactant, viscoelastic surfactant, a solid, hydrophobic material, an emulsion, a gas, or an energized fluid.
A method of treating a siliceous geologic formation, the method comprising:
