The vanishing of the radius of the stabilising circle in a compactification scheme . In case of the asymptotically locally conical G 2 metric Gromov–Hausdorff limit yields the direct product of S 1 times a Ricci-flat Calabi-Yau six-metric [1] giving the deformed conifold or the resolved conifold [2]. Thus the Gromov–Hausdorff limit may be identified with the weak coupling limit [3]. For Spin(7) metric a Gromov–Hausdorff limit gives the product 
[4], where M 4 is the Atiyah-Hitchin metric [5].
