How do you separate gold from pyrite without a smelter?

Gold won’t dissolve in acid wheras pyrite will. That ‘separates’ them – but not too useful if its not the gold you want or you want both. If telling them apart is what you want then their density is different, their structure is different (crystalline mineral – pyrite) and their hardness is different.
