Minimum safe distance for metals without seriously compromising the antenna (tuning) is 40 mm top/bottom and 30 mm left or right. Metal close to the BT830-SA chip monopole antenna (bottom, top, left, right, any direction) will have degradation on the antenna performance. The amount of degradation is entirely system dependent which means some testing by customers is required (in their host application).
