Imbaimadai is a community in the Cuyuni-Mazaruni Region of Guyana.

Imbaimadai is a mining community adjoining Amerindian lands.[3] Imbaimadai is known for its gold, diamond and other precious mineral deposits.[4] As of 2016, only 13 mines remained of which seven were operational. The miners wanted to open up new mines, however indigenous lands complicated the situation.[5][6]

Imbaimadai is also known for its natural environment, mountains that are part of the Pakaraima range, its waterfalls and its forests.[4]

The village is served by Imbaimadai Airport, and is situated at an elevation of 1,650 feet (500 m).[1]
