Sedimentation is not considered part of orogenesis. Orogenesis refers to the processes involved in the formation of mountains, which include folding, faulting (like thrust faulting), and igneous activity. Sedimentation, on the other hand, is related to the deposition of sediments and is not a direct process of mountain building.
