No mountain of gold was found uncovered by the Euphrates soon thereafter, let alone an exceptionally deadly conflict over the ownership of such gold. There is a gold mine several kilometers from the Euphrates which is claimed to fulfil the prophecy (the Copler mine in Erzincan province, Turkey). This was neither uncovered by the Euphrates, nor is it a mountain, nor has there been a deadly scramble to possess it.

The hadith prophecy is simply one adapted from the well known Biblical apocalypse, [https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Revelation%2016&version=NIV Revelation 16:12], "The sixth angel poured out his bowl on the great river Euphrates, and its water was dried up to prepare the way for the kings from the East." In Revelation, this occurs in the context of a series of bowls of wrath poured out in highly symbolic language. The meaning is very obviously not literal.
