That is a very interesting question.

No, it wound't be considered reproduction for many reasons and these are some of them:

Reproduction only occurs among living organisms.

Reproduction is more complex than something like erosion, where really, nothing complex happens appart from sedimentatino and things like that.


There are still many more reasons, but I won't write all of them.



Hope it helped,
