The South African Rand lost ground against the U.S. dollar in early New York trading on Monday, as oil prices declined after Iraq increased its export target ahead of the OPEC meeting, while Canadian oil sands production are set to resume following massive wildfire.

The South African Rand that closed Friday's trading at 15.7015 against the greenback slipped to a 6-day low of 15.8418. The South African currency is likely to test support around the 16.5 zone.
