The Contented 1 occurrence is located on a ridge separating Cook and Macktush creeks, approximately 4 kilometres southwest of the Macktush Creek mouth, 16.5 kilometres south-southwest of Port Alberni.

The area is underlain by Upper Triassic Vancouver Group, Karmutsen Formation basalts, in association with underlying granodiorites of the Lower Jurassic Island Plutonic Suite.

The zone consists of very fine to coarse grained, sporadic pyrite, pyrrhotite, and chalcopyrite as disseminations, fracture fillings, veinlets and massive pods within sheared basalts. Disseminations and fracture fillings are found in the more competent basalts and the sulphide pods occur in the shear zones. These pods attain a width of 15 centimetres and height of 1 metre and are 80 to 90 per cent sulphides.

In 1982, Noranda Mining and Exploration completed a program of rock, silt and soil sampling on the Contented 1-2 claims. Hand specimen samples from these pods assayed 45.57 grams per tonne silver and 5.8 per cent copper (Assessment Report 12044).

In 1996 through 2006, SYMC resources prospected the area as part of the of the Macktush Property along the west side of the Alberni Inlet, now called the Dauntless property. In 2009 through 2011, G4G Resources completed programs of geological mapping and rock and soil sampling on the area as the Macktush Copper property. In 2011, the area was prospected as the Hook Bay copper property. In 2012, Nahminto Resources Ltd. completed a satellite remote sensing survey and analysis on the Macktush group and conducted prospecting and rock sampling on the property from 2012 through 2014. In 2014, D.W. Ferguson completed a program of prospecting and rock sampling on the area as the Hook Bay Cu property. Four samples (1615102 through 1615105) yielded from 0.26 to 0.82 per cent copper (Assessment Report 34542). A similar prospecting, geological mapping and rock sampling program was conducted on areas of the Macktush property for World Organics Inc. in 2015.

In 2020, Langford Exploration, on the behalf of Canadian International Pharma Corp., completed a program of geological mapping, prospecting and geochemical (rock, soil and stream sediment) sampling on the area as the Hook Bay property (092F 616).
