No, bacteria and micro organisms in the crust create it as a by-product, and DO replenish it… think about the leaves you didnt clean up last fall. do they turn to an oily mess of goo? or DUST?

ABSTRACT

There are strong indications that microbial

life is widespread at depth in the crust of the Earth, just as such

life has been identified in numerous ocean vents. This life is not

dependent on solar energy and photosynthesis for its primary

energy supply, and it is essentially independent of the surface

circumstances. Its energy supply comes from chemical sources,

due to fluids that migrate upward from deeper levels in the

Earth. In mass and volume it may be comparable with all

surface life. Such microbial life may account for the presence

of biological molecules in all carbonaceous materials in the

outer crust, and the inference that these materials must have

derived from biological deposits accumulated at the surface is

therefore not necessarily valid. Subsurface life may be wide-

spread among the planetary bodies of our solar system, since

many of them have equally suitable conditions below, while

having totally inhospitable surfaces. One may even speculate

that such life may be widely disseminated in the universe, since

planetary type bodies with similar subsurface conditions may

be common as solitary objects in space, as well as in other

solar-type systems
