He did not make Galvorn from the meteorite, I'm afraid. In the Silmarillion he devises it with the aid of the Blue Dwarves, far after he made Anglachel and Anguiriel. If he had made it from the meteorite, in any case, how would the Elves of Gondolin have created it(that is canon, as the Dark Guard wore shining jet armor in the exact description of galvorn)? Maeglin taught them how, and it is highly unlikely that they could have found any meteorite material in the deeps of the encircling mountains around Amon Gwareth.
