Refining Iron Pyrite

Is there a way to refine Iron Pyrite into either sulfuric acid or metallic iron? My main concern is that I want to know how to make metallic iron out of it, and I was wondering if the leftover sulfur can also be taken into storage as sulfuric acid. Either way, I'd like to know what kind of process I would need for both, making iron pyrite into sulfuric acid and into metallic iron, if that's even possible. Doesn't have to come from one batch. Like, have Batch A from which to make metallic iron, possibly wasting the sulfur, and Batch B from which to make sulfuric acid, leaving you with some iron byproducts to be later refined into metallic iron if possible. Is such a process complex? Is a lot of equipment required and since sulfur is a thing, can I just do things outdoors and not breathe in the fumes?
