Is there a minimum distance that a lightning rod must be from a natural gas line?

I don't think the NFPA national electrical code has any rules concerning this.
The local utility companies (gas / electric) may have a rule.
Even if no rules governing distance, use prudent judgment ie: don't drive the rod so close as to risk contact and/or damage.
If using a power tool to drive the rod, there is a risk that vibration from the tool can cause a leak in an old gas pipe.
Also if using a power tool to drive the rod, many areas require a "call before you dig" so the utilities can be marked.

Keep all conductive objects a sufficient distance from the line. Minimum distance depends on the voltage on the line.

Distance maintain between phase to phase?
is there a minimum distance between 480 volt phases. ANOTHER ANSWERThere is no such thing as a 'phase-to-phase' voltage. The correct term is 'line-to-line', which is why that voltage is called a 'line voltage'. The distance between these line conductors depends on the value of the line voltage; the greater the line voltage, the greater this distance must be to prevent any flashover. These distances are specified in the utility company's standards or regulations.
