For one thing calcium is highly reactive and does not occur naturally in it elemental form.

The calcium in dairy products is in the form of calcium compounds, which contain the calcium ion, Ca2+. It is in this form the the body uses calcium anyway.

Additionally, terms such as "high calcium" in dietary terms refer to what are actually relatively small amounts of a particular mineral or vitamin. A glass of milk only contains a few hundred milligrams of calcium.
