At this point, contact your local AHJ with your situation, if there is one for your locale.
Keep in mind that the purpose of grounding an antenna is NOT to absorb a lighting strike (that's the province of a lightning protection system, quite a different animal), it's to drain off static so the antenna mast is less inviting to a strike and to protect against accidental energizing of the mast in the event of an accident.
If lightning were to hit the mast anyway, the whole grounding system is going to convert to plasma in a minute fraction of a second. Destruction will be extensive.
