Mountains are NOT a place where deposition (of sediments) are at a maximum. However they ARE a place where erosion (of sediments) is at a maximum. This is because mountains are steep and there is therefore allot of energy in the water flowing off mountains. This energy breaks down and removes the rocks from which the mountains are made.
