Igarapé Gelado is a tributary stream of the Parauapebas River in the state of Pará, Brazil, flowing through the heart of the Amazon biome in the Carajás Mineral Province. Approximately 60 kilometers in length, this stream runs through the Igarapé Gelado Environmental Protection Area (APA Igarapé Gelado), a 23,285-hectare protected landscape established in 1989 and administered by the Chico Mendes Institute for Biodiversity Conservation (ICMBio). The stream is bounded to the southeast by the Carajás Railroad, to the northeast by the Mombaça and Gelado streams, to the northwest by the Azul and Itacaiúnas rivers, and to the south by the Carajás National Forest. The surrounding landscape encompasses both cultivated land and intact Amazon forest, and the stream corridor reflects the ecological complexity of this region, which sits in close proximity to significant mining operations in the Carajás Mineral Province.
