Aperture synthesis maps are presented of SO J(K) = 2(2)-1(1) emission at 86.093938 GHz of the molecular cloud Orion B obtained from combined BIMA/NRAO 12-m data. The spatial resolution is 11 x 7 arcsec and the velocity resolution is 0.54 km/s. The maps show fine structure in the dense molecular core, the main features being two relatively compact components aligned with the long quiescent NS-oriented ridge of previous maps. Most notable, however, is the approximately 1-2 km/s blueshift of this line with respect to other high-density tracers of the main core. Implications of these data for the chemistry of SO in dense clouds are discussed.
